Founded in 2002, the Spivey Hall Young Artists features students ages 10 through 13. Under the direction of Craig Hurley, the Young Artists serves as the preparatory choir equipping singers with the skills they need to participate in the Spivey Hall Children’s Choir. One hundred twenty voices strong, the Spivey Hall Children’s Choir was founded in 1994 and features singers ages 10 through 18. Dr. Martha Shaw, artistic director, conducts this ensemble as well as its advanced counterpart, the Tour Choir.
As cultural ambassadors of the State of Georgia, the Tour Choir has recorded four professional CDs and performed to acclaim throughout the United States, as well as in Canada, Sweden, Norway, England, Austria, Czech Republic, China, Scotland, and Spain. In February 2015, it performed to standing ovations at the American Choral Directors National Conference in Salt Lake City. The Choir was featured as a solo ensemble on the stage of Carnegie Hall in June 2016. In June 2018, the Choir traveled to Italy for a performance tour highlighted by singing Mass in the Vatican. We look forward to welcoming the group to Dublin on 11 June for an evening of beautiful music.
