Founded in 1977 and still under the direction of conductor and organist Walter Klauss, Musica Viva lends credence to the idea that you simply can’t have too much choral music in New York.  Each season, the tandem ensemble of chorus and orchestra consistently provides its audiences with opportunity to enjoy early music on period instruments, newer choral compositions, and international gems representative of the world’s most gifted choral composers.  While Musica Viva events are not priced with the most frugal concertgoer in mind, the performances are solid and the atmosphere of the full-fledged concerts is appropriately regal.
