The San Diego Vocal Arts Chorale (SDVAC) is a high-level auditioned choral organization that is dedicated to the performance of diversified choral music.  It is committed to the finest of choral literature in a broad range of styles, with primary emphasis on uplifting, inspirational, and spiritual principles.  The SDVAC is intended to be a vehicle for experienced choral singers to come together in a common love for singing, with the purpose to provide spiritually elevating experiences to audiences, through the influence of quality music, that may motivate individuals to live more virtuous lives. 

Each member of the Chorale agrees to abide by and demonstrate in daily living those moral virtues encompassed in the gospel of Jesus Christ.  The San Diego Vocal Arts Chorale initiated its rehearsals on March 23, 2000.  It presents a variety of concerts in varied venues throughout the year.  On August 31^st, twenty-four of the Chorale’s singers traveled to Jerusalem to participate in the premier of Lex De Azevedo’s oratorio, “Hosanna.”  On December 1^st, the SDVAC performed in Mr. Azevedo’s oratorio, “Gloria,” at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles.  On May 4, 2001, the Chorale presented “Hosanna” with the Millennium Choir and the San Diego Symphony at Copley Symphony Hall in San Diego.
