Events begin online September 15th.
Harold Rosenbaum, Conductor and Artistic Director of The New York Virtuoso Singers, The Canticum Novum Singers and their parent organization Canticorum Virtuosi, Inc., has announced dates for their Fall 2020 concert season online events.

Regardless of whether the choirs can perform live this coming season because of the pandemic, Canticorum Virtuosi, Inc. will offer thirty virtual sessions/workshops/webinars via Zoom, with an emphasis on helping singers, conductors, and composers.
