Connecticut Master Chorale

The Litchfield County Children’s Choir was founded in the fall of 1990 by Christopher P. Shepard and Barbara E. Soderberg. Since its inception, the LCCC has grown in size to over one hundred members.

Currently there are two choirs: the Junior Choir, a training choir for the inexperienced and moderately experienced singers in grades 3-7, and the Senior Choir for experience singers in grades 6-12. Singers hail from many towns in the Greater Waterbury area, including Bethlehem, Middlebury, Southbury, Waterbury, Watertown, Woodbury, and Naugatuck. In addition to presenting two seasonal concerts at The Taft School in Watertown each year, the Choir has been a guest of the Connecticut Choral Society, the New Haven Symphony, the Waterbury Chorale, and the Naugatuck Valley Community College Choir.

This season, as well as performing with the Connecticut Master Chorale, the LCCC combined choirs sang with New Haven Symphony for their Winter Pops Concerts and with Waterbury Symphony in their December performance of The Nutcracker at the Palace Theatre in Waterbury.

The Connecticut Master Chorale will be joined by the Senior Choir and members of the Junior Choir in the performance of John Rutter's Mass of the Children.
