Listening to the Future 2026

Our annual young composers concert returns for its 10th year! This year’s program features the world premieres of original choral works by both local high school composers and collegiate composers from across the nation. In partnership with The Collegiate Choral Composition Community (The CCCC), the Pasadena Chorale expands Listening to the Future for the first time to showcase emerging collegiate voices alongside the program’s young local composers. The result is an inspiring evening celebrating creativity, mentorship, and the future of choral music.
The venue for this year’s #LTTF concert is Pasadena Presbyterian Church located at 585 E Colorado Blvd.
Listening to the Future is made possible in part by the Pasadena Arts & Culture Commission and the City of Pasadena Cultural Affairs Division.
