- $34,383 spent. For its 107th season, Vallejo Choral Society presented two, December concerts featuring Vivaldi Magnificat and Trumbore Magnificat. Additionally, VCS performed a Christmas concert for the Mare Island Naval Museum, also in December. In March 2025, VCS held a successful Spring Gala with choral works based on themes about the nature of love, including works by Florence Price, Carlos Guastavino, and Brahms' Liebeslieder Waltzer. To complete the season, the 45-member Choral Society produced two performances anchored with Vaughan Williams' Dona Nobis Pacem, with chamber orchestra and renowned guest soloists, presented at St. Pauls in Episcopal Church Benicia and the Springbrook Masonic Temple in Vallejo. Concert attendance for each performance described is about 100 audience guests. VCS joined two other Bay Area choruses under the direction of Eric Choate to reprise the Dona Nobis Pacem at a Candlelight concert in San Francisco, followed by a larger collaboration with full orchestra performance at Carnegie Hall in New York City. VCS also continued growing its youth chorus, Campanelli Children's Choir, in association with Greater Vallejo Recreation District. We had a total of 9 students over two semesters.
