Harmonia Chamber Singers bring holiday cheer to Quick Center

Nov 11, 2026



The Regina A. Quick Center for the Arts at St. Bonaventure University will welcome the acclaimed Harmonia Chamber Singers for a holiday concert at 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 13, in the Rigas Family Theater.

A chamber choir dressed in black performs inside a warmly lit church, holding sheet music and singing under the direction of a conductor.

“We are thrilled to present the Harmonia Chamber Singers this December,” said Quick Center Executive Director Dr. Rachel M. Harris. “Their voices are stunning, offering a wonderful way to celebrate the holiday season with rich warmth and holiday cheer. We invite everyone to join us for an inspiring event filled with warmth and joy.” 

Founded in 2006 by Executive Director Robert Pacillo, the Buffalo-based Harmonia Chamber Singers have earned a reputation as one of Western New York’s finest and most accomplished professional vocal ensembles. Renowned for their exceptional a cappella blend, the group delivers stunning performances of seasonal and sacred choral music spanning centuries — from the complex polyphony of the Renaissance to contemporary holiday classics and vocal jazz.

This cozy afternoon concert promises to be the perfect antidote to the hectic holiday season.

Each performance in the Quick Center’s Performing Arts Series is made possible through the generous collaboration of Friends of Good Music.
