Our 2024–2025 Season Latest news, jaunākās ziņas!

The New York Latvian Concert Choir, Ņujorkas latviešu koris, is a non-professional choral group based in Yonkers, New York, drawing its membership from the tri-state area. While our members are primarily of Baltic background, the calling of the Latvian musical spirit has beckoned others to join us as well!

Founded in 1975, our choir has been devoted to performing masterpieces of Latvian choral, operatic and symphonic literature, and traditional folk music. Our choir also regularly commissions and premiers new works by Latvian composers.

Our choir first traveled to Latvia during the Soviet occupation. Since Baltic independence we have returned to Latvia numerous times to perform and to record. We also regularly participate in the Latvian "Dziesmu Svētki", or Song Festivals, held in Latvia and abroad.

Our 2024–2025 Season

The 2024–2025 season marks our 50th!

We successfully concluded our 2023–2024 season with our Spring Concert, after which many members participated in the XVI Latviešu Dziesmu svētki Kanadā, the XVI Latvian Song and Dance Festival in Canada, taking place in Toronto, July 4th–7th.

We are concluding our 2024–2025 season with our celebratory 50th Anniversary Spring concert. See "Events" for further details.

Rehearsals generally take place Sundays, at 11:15, at the Latvian Lutheran Church in Yonkers. Updates are distributed weekly to members via Email. Please contact us if you are interested in joining.

We invite you follow us on our Facebook page and subscribe to our YouTube channel.
