3 About Schola Cantorum on Hudson Schola Cantorum on Hudson formed as an independent chorus in the fall of The group s artistic mission is to enrich the life and the cultural awareness of the community by providing the highest quality of choral music and educational opportunities. In addition to its expanded concert season and its anticipated tour of Austria and the Czech Republic, culminating in a performance at the 2008 Salzburg Festival, SCH participates in a variety of community events, and is increasingly performing concerts beyond Hudson County. The individual members of SCH have been drawn together by a shared love of great choral music and by a dedication to the highest standard of performance of that repertoire. 3
