Mixed Voice Semi-Pro Ensemble

Based in Washington, DC

Praised for performing with "striking color and richness" (The Washington Post) and "a tight and attractive vocal blend and excellent choral discipline" (American Record Guide), The Thirteen is an all-star professional ensemble known for reimagining the potential of vocal music. Since its founding in 2012, the choir has been at the forefront of invigorating performances of choral masterworks ranging from early chant to world premieres and the centuries in between.

The Thirteen draws its artists from among the finest ensembles in the world, including Chanticleer, Seraphic Fire, Apollo's Fire, Conspirare, I Fagiolini, Opera Philadelphia, Boston Early Music Festival, and Trinity Wall Street. The choir's peerless singers are best described by National Public Radio commentator M.D. Ridge: "to talk about the remarkable abilities and sound of the individual singers would... be like trying to say which whitecaps on the ocean reflect the sun most beautifully, or which leaves on a tree dance most gracefully with the wind... I stand in awe."

Auditioned.
