For over 60 years, the Grammy-Award winning Los Angeles Master Chorale has been a standard-bearer for choruses across America. Hailed for its powerful performances, technical precision and artistic daring, the Chorale reaches more than 175,000 people a year through its concert series at Walt Disney Concert Hall, its international touring of innovative works and its performances with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and others.

Led by Grant Gershon, Kiki & David Gindler Artistic Director; Associate Artistic Director Jenny Wong; and President & CEO Scott Altman, the Master Chorale was named “the finest-by-far major chorus in America” by the Los Angeles Times. From intimate performances with just six or eight singers to full-scale collaborations featuring 100 voices, it consistently thrills audiences with its versatility and artistic depth, performing early choral works alongside pop classics and modern pieces as well as exclusive commissions from the world’s most innovative composers.

Voices of Master Chorale singers have been featured on many major motion pictures as well as on the 2025 and 2026 Academy Awards, which was broadcast to over 19 million viewers around the world.

Created by legendary conductor Roger Wagner in 1964, the Chorale is a founding resident company of The Music Center in Los Angeles and choir-in-residence at Walt Disney Concert Hall. It has an industry-defining commitment to fostering new music from modern composers and educating the next generation of choral music singers through its renowned education programs.

Hailed for his adventurous and bold artistic leadership, Grant Gershon, Kiki & David Gindler Artistic Director, celebrates his 24th season with the Los Angeles Master Chorale, which he transformed into the “best by- far major chorus in America” (Los Angeles Times).

Grant and the Chorale received two Grammy Awards for Best Choral Performance in 2026 and 2022. He also received Chorus America’s 2022 Korn Founders Award for his career-spanning leadership in the field of choral music.

Grant made his San Francisco Opera and Dutch National Opera debuts in 2017 and 2019, respectively, conducting the world premiere of John Adams’ Girls of the Golden West. As Resident Conductor of LA Opera, Grant conducted the West Coast premiere of Philip Glass’s Satyagraha in November 2018; and he led the world premiere of Daniel Catán’s Il Postino, which was subsequently released on DVD by Sony Classical.

Among the highpoints of his time with the Chorale, they twice opened the famed Salzburg Festival—with Orlando di Lasso’s Lagrime di San Pietro in 2019 and Heinrich Schütz’ Music to Accompany a Departure in 2023. They have also performed these works to enormous acclaim around the world. In New York, Grant and the Chorale were the featured artists at Lincoln Center’s Great Performers Series. They also performed on the 2025 and 2026 Academy Awards, viewed by millions around the world.

Grant’s discography includes Chorale recordings of music by Nico Muhly, Henrik Gorecki, David Lang, Steve Reich and for Decca, Nonesuch and Cantaloupe Records. He has also led the Chorale in performances for motion picture soundtracks, including, at the request of John Williams, The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker.

Gershon has performed at Carnegie Hall and Trinity Wall Street in New York, and has led concert performances with the San Francisco Symphony, the National Symphony, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, and operas for Houston Grand Opera, The Santa Fe Opera and Wolf Trap Opera.

Gershon was named Outstanding Alumnus of the USC Thornton School of Music in 2002 and received the USC Alumni Merit Award in 2017.
