The Grammy Award-winning Houston Chamber Choir, under the direction of founder and artistic director Robert Simpson, presents the 22nd annual Hear the Future invitational choral festival on Sunday, Jan. 30 in the sanctuary of South Main Baptist Church. Each year, the Houston Chamber Choir invites three outstanding school choirs from the Greater Houston area to participate in its invitational choral festival.

Featured are the Parker Elementary School Advanced Chorus directed by Marianna Parnas-Simpson (Houston ISD), the North Shore Middle School Choir under the direction of Erin Huston (Galena Park ISD), and the Cy-Fair Chorale conducted by Nicholas Likos (Cypress-Fairbanks ISD). The professional men and women singers of the Houston Chamber Choir conducted by Robert Simpson, will also perform. Noted music educators and Houston Chamber Choir Educational Consultants, Sally Schott and Eddie Quaid, lead the planning of the festival. The event will entertain and inspire audiences as they “hear” that the future of choral music is bright.

There is ample parking in the church lot. No tickets are required, and the format is open seating. The festival is appropriate for all ages.
