It is with pleasure and pride that Laguna Beach Chamber Singers (LBCS) announces its summer recording project. LBCS has carefully divided itself into three distinct ensembles in order to safely and responsibly curate an intimate artistic experience for all of its listeners.
Join LBCS on a thoughtful musical exploration of rebirth and restoration told through the compositional styles of 16th century composers Thomas Tallis and William Byrd, romantic figures such as Anton Bruckner, and modern choral artists in David Lang and Dale Trumbore, among others. LBCS aims to reflect on the pain and hardship the world has faced this past year and look forward to the healing to come.
We are grateful for your support and hope this musical offering serves as an opportunity to express how important both you and the world are to us.

About Us
Laguna Beach Chamber Singers (LBCS) was founded in 2008 by conductor Christin Cornell. We started as a group of committed musicians rehearsing and performing in the living room of one of our members. We continued to grow and to attract quality singers, and in 2014, we incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, governed by a board of directors. We were later led by conductor Cory Winter, who brought us through a period of significant growth from 2016 to 2019. We are currently conducted by Music Director Victor De La Cruz, assisted by assistant conductor Ashton Bocca-Hackwith.
Originally we performed two concerts per year. Since that time, we have continued to grow in focus and quality, and to reach a larger audience. In 2020, we doubled our concert presentations by offering two concerts each season, for a total of four concerts per year, in two different venues.
Based in Laguna Beach, LBCS is comprised of singers from Orange as well as Los Angeles counties. Our programs are as eclectic as our membership.
