Are you a singer with a heart for the poor, a love for the sacred, and a devotion to your art? Consider sharing your gifts with Caritas Chamber Chorale for the 2025-2026 season. Join Caritas in our mission of serving the poorest of the poor through the art of sacred music.

Caritas Chamber Chorale, a 20+ voice a cappella choir, performs mostly short sacred motets, anthems, and spirituals, with repertoire ranging from the Renaissance to today. Working in separate sessions, the Chorale typically prepares two programs per concert season. Each program is presented three times in various beautiful sacred spaces throughout central New Jersey. Rehearsals are held in Martinsville or Far Hills on Friday evenings, with some Tuesdays for sectionals or other rehearsals. Singers volunteer their time; there is no remuneration, neither is there tuition.

The Chorale performs for the benefit of the Adorno Fathers’ African Mission in Goma, DRC, and, through freewill donations at concerts, supports a nursery school, a primary school and an orphanage. Recent turmoil in Goma makes our support of these children even more vital.
