A Message from Artistic Director, Dr. Adam Stich
Welcome to the Halifax Master Chorale! As a music director and educator, I believe that music has the power to unite people. Our performances, including our annual Christmas Concert and Broadway Concerts, are crafted to bring audiences together to enjoy the beauty and nostalgia of choral music. Join us for a concert, purchase concert tickets, or come and sing with us. Get involved and experience the warmth and musicality of this premier local choir.
Audience feedback
May 2026 Concert "We Hold These Truths"
"Bel Canto has established a long history of excellent performances, and this is one of their greatest. The image & sound of all 3 choirs surrounding the stage and side aisles totally enveloped everyone in that piece. Please do it again!"
"It is an excellent group of amazing singers!"
"I sang with Bel Canto some years ago so I know the effort it takes to pull off a magnificent concert like this. I found myself sobbing a few times and can't remember the last time I was moved to such an emotional depth. Bravo and kudos to all."
"Music selection was very good and the quality of voices and orchestra was impressive."
Sing With Us!
We invite experienced singers to join the Halifax Master Chorale. Membership is by audition-only, with selections based on criteria such as singing ability, blend, sectional balance, and vocal needs for the season.
Twice per year, in January and August/September, we offer an open rehearsal and invite new singers to join us. If the group proves to be a good fit, you can then sign up for an audition slot. Auditions may also be scheduled by request throughout the year.
We rehearse weekly on Monday evenings from 7 pm-9 pm in Daytona Beach, August/September through May, and take the summer off. Additional rehearsals may be scheduled by the director as needed throughout the season. We perform 5-6 concerts each year, including our popular Christmas Concert and Pops Concerts.

Support the Arts
The Chorale was honored to receive a $2,000 grant from the Latitude Daytona Beach Foundation for 2026. Treasurer Patty Blais, Vice President Beth Pierce, and choir member Wendy Swank accepted the award on behalf of the choir at a May 1st Day of Giving event. The Foundation is affiliated with the Latitude Margaritaville development in Daytona Beach and is supported by its residents. We appreciate their support!
While ticket sales contribute to our revenue, it does not fully cover our expenses, including salaries, music, venue rentals, and instrumentalists. If you would like to support our performances, please consider making a one-time or monthly tax-deductible gift to the Halifax Master Chorale. Your donation makes a difference.
