Rafael Ornes directs the Stanford Summer Chorus, a non-auditioned community chorus sponsored by the Stanford Department of Music. Membership is open to everyone; singers typically come from all corners of the Bay Area, and from all age groups and ability levels.
This summer's program, Earth Songs, is a celebration of nature.
