Arts on the Town

Since its start 50 years ago, the Phoenix Chorale (formerly the Phoenix Bach Choir) has risen from community group to one of the globe’s best-regarded choral organizations. Proof: Arizona’s only professional choir is nominated for four Grammies, including Best Classical Album, and it will be the first a capella choir to sing in New York’s newly refurbished Alice Tully Hall, March 16. You can stream the Grammies this Sunday, Feb. 8, to see if our hometown choir’s an international winner, but before you do, take a moment to listen to the choir’s executive director, tenor Joel Rinsema, wax eloquent about his life’s passion.
