The Houston Chamber Choir pays tribute to the indomitable spirit of our music educators, and their talented students, with performances by school choirs selected from past Hear the Future annual choral invitational festivals. A Time to Lift Up, the third offering of the 2020-2021 virtual season, To Everything a Season will kick off January 31, 2021 and will be available online until August 2021. For the past 21 years, the Houston Chamber Choir has invited three outstanding choirs from the Greater Houston area to participate in Hear the Future. The elementary, middle, and high school choirs featured each year serve to acknowledge and encourage high standards for all school choirs. Thousands of students from more than 60 of the area's finest school choral programs have participated. The free community concerts give audience members a chance to show their support and appreciation for the outstanding work being done by choirs in Houston-area schools.
