Founded in 1975, The New York Latvian Concert Choir is a non-professional choral group based in Yonkers, New York drawing its members from the tri-state area. Now in its 30 th season the choir is devoted to the performance of Latvian choral, operatic and symphonic literature as well as the traditional folk music of Latvia. Under the leadership of its conductor Andrejs Jansons the NYLCC has commissioned many new works by Latvian composers, recorded five CD's and performed in some of the finest halls in the USA (Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall) Canada and Latvia. Each spring the choir organizes a workshop and concert in the Catskills, often with guest artists and conductors, and fosters and enjoys a vibrant and rich exchange relationship with the best musicians and musical organizations in Latvia.
