Your contribution not only benefits the many worthy organizations we partner with, but also invests in a valuable gem of choral singing in the Twin Cities metro area.
"Your collective sound seems to grow finer each year, and your dedication to the causes you sing for more deeply felt."
-A Caritas benefiting organization
This season, we are thrilled to welcome Artistic Director Paolo Debuque to Caritas. Paolo is a Filipino/Chinese-American conductor and choral artist who’s already making a mark on the Twin Cities choral scene. In addition to leading Caritas, Paolo holds artistic positions across the Twin Cities, including Chorus Master of the Dakota Valley Symphony, Chancel Choir Director at Good Samaritan UMC, Section Leader and Guest Conductor for the Bridges Project of the Minnesota Chorale, and Ensemble Member of Border CrosSing.
Paolo's independent projects are noted for their innovative programming and commitment to grassroots, community-centered art. These include "A Thousand Tongues," a collaborative concert of music and reflections on the AAPI experience, "Path to Peace," a week-long choral festival for gun violence prevention, and Homespun, a community-rooted, professional chamber ensemble.
A Minnesota native, Paolo holds a B.A from Swarthmore College and an M.M. in Choral Conducting from the Univeristy of Michigan. Caritas is already benefiting from Paolo’s skills as a singer, pianist, and conductor. With him, we are excited about the higher level of vocal production, repertoire, and musicality we are reaching and the renewed focus he brings to our community-centered artistic vision.
Join us at a concert in 2024 to hear what all the excitement is about!
2024's benefitting organizations include TRUST Inc., Cherish All Children, Avenues for Youth, and Salem Lutheran Community Meal program.
Visit our website soon to learn about our 2024 theme of love: gained and lost, experienced and unrequited, in all its facets.
The spring concert calendar is in the works!
We couldn't have accomplished 20+ years of concerts without the support of all our donors, and we are excited to see what this new chapter of Caritas will bring!
Thank you for contributing to Caritas Vocal Ensemble to help fund the group's plans for fresh concert ideas, and endless giving through song.
