Chromatica, East Bay’s popular chorus, announces its 15th anniversary season with two concert series in November 2026 and April 2027.
Chromatica invites you to “Our Journey Home”, with captivating music celebrating home in all its forms. Fall concerts will be at 3pm on November 7 at Holy Shepherd Lutheran Church, 433 Moraga Way in Orinda, and at 7pm November 8 at Peace Lutheran Church, 3201 Camino Tassajara in Danville, The Danville concert will include Chromatica’s popular post-concert wine reception


Chromatica’s first public concerts were performed in 2012. Performing a repertoire significantly different from other community choruses, Chromatica has sung music from the 12th to the 21st centuries, in many different languages and genres. It has carved out a unique identity along with three commissions developed exclusively for it. The latest, Christopher Tin’s Transfigurations, was performed to a standing ovation by Chromatica in Santa Fe New Mexico in January 2026 – its first trip outside the Bay Area. It will travel to London in 2028. Chromatica is already working on a new major commission from a nationally recognized composer. 
Chromatica’s final 15th
anniversary concerts will be performed in April 2027 and will include pieces that have delighted our audiences and singers over the past 15 years.
“It is astonishing to look back over the past 15 years and remember our beginnings with 8 singers. We have come a long way and I’m immensely proud of what Chromatica has achieved. But I do believe this is only the beginning as we look towards our next major commission, and planned travel overseas in 2028. I’m very grateful to our audiences and of course our singers – these will be memorable concerts” said Chromatica’s director David Huff.
