ABOUT Essential Voices USA
Judith Clurman’s Essential Voices USA (EVUSA) is one of New York’s preeminent choral ensembles. The ensemble is comprised of a talented roster of seasoned professionals and auditioned volunteers, dynamically fitted to the unique needs of each project.   EVUSA held a month-long residency at National Public Radio, performed for many years with The New York Pops in its Carnegie Hall subscription series, performed on NBC’s July 4th Macy’s Fireworks Spectacular and at the Rockefeller Center Tree Lighting and participated in President Obama’s Inaugural activities. On July 4, 2022, they performed Washington Women, the choral cycle they commissioned, on the National Public Radio Tiny Desk Concerts. The group has produced The Composer Speaks at the DiMenna Center for Classical Music and has premiered numerous works and collaborated with America’s finest composers. Their Project Youth Chorus program has provided select high school students the opportunity to sing with the chorus on recordings and in concerts at Carnegie Hall.  They have released numerous recordings. They recently released Christmas Joy, Holiday Joy, and Listen to the World on Albany Records. In 2026, the group will return to Carnegie Hall, and perform community concerts; their recording of Songs of Freedom: A Celebration of Chanukah will be heard at the Indianapolis’ Art Museum – Newfields holiday light show.
