About the San Francisco Girls Chorus

Under the direction of Artistic Director Valérie Sainte-Agathe, the San Francisco Girls Chorus (SFGC) has achieved an incomparable sound that underscores the unique clarity and force of impeccably trained treble voices fused with expressiveness and drama. As a result, the Chorus vibrantly performs 1,000 years of choral masterworks from plainchant to the most challenging and nuanced contemporary works created expressly for them in programs that are as intelligently designed as they are enjoyable and revelatory to experience.

Established in 1978, the Chorus is a leading voice on the Bay Area and national music scenes, producing award-winning concerts, recordings and tours, empowering young women in music and other fields, expanding the field of music for treble voices and setting the international standard for the highest level of performance and education. Commissions of new works, collaborations with renowned guest artists, and partnerships with other Bay Area and national arts organizations provide the young women of SFGC with matchless performance experiences among powerful adult role models. In addition to its annual engagements with the San Francisco Opera and San Francisco Symphony, recent and upcoming artistic partnerships for the Chorus include San Francisco Ballet, San Francisco Film Festival, Opera Parallèle, Kronos Quartet, Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, New Century Chamber Orchestra, TEDxSanFrancisco, and Paul Miller aka DJ Spooky.

SFGC’s commitment to artistic excellence has been recognized through many awards and honors, including five GRAMMY Awards; four ASCAP/Chorus America Awards for Adventurous Programming; and, in 2002, becoming the first youth chorus to receive Chorus America’s prestigious Margaret Hillis Achievement Award for Choral Excellence.
