The Singers Companye is a chamber choir consisting of professional musicians from northeast Ohio. Samuel Gordon founded the ensemble in September 2007 in order to provide singers with the opportunity to sing great choral works for chamber choir from virtually every period of musical composition. Gordon is the artistic director of Corofest Italia and in June 2008 Singers Companye was the choir-in-residence for that festival. In addition, the ensemble has performed in Assisi, Bologna, Perugia, and Pistoia, and has also sung on the Music at the Farmstead series, a unique music festival in the Cuyahoga National Park near Akron, Ohio. Other recent performances include the Kulas Series at
the University of Akron. We have been invited to the international choral festival that will be held in Tolosa, Spain in October 2009.
"... they compromise a highly disciplined, cohesive ensemble that is responsive to words and expressive subtleties. Gordon and his singers breathe as one. Gordon has established warm blend, true pitch and smoothness of vocal motion." -Donald Rosenberg, The Cleveland Plain Dealer
