The Verdi Chorus kicks off its 42nd season with its Fall 2025 Concert Faust – Berlioz, Gounod and Boito for two performances only at the First Presbyterian Church in Santa Monica on November 15 and 16, 2025. Led by Anne Marie Ketchum, who is celebrating forty-two consecutive years as Artistic Director of the organization, the Verdi Chorus is the only choral group in Southern California that focuses primarily on the dramatic and diverse music for opera chorus. The program will feature operatic sequences from Berlioz’sLa Damnation de Faust, Gounod’s Faust and Boito’s Mefistofele.
The program will also feature three guest soloists: soprano Jessica Tivens-Schneiderman, celebrated by the
San Francisco Chronicle as “a singer of considerable gifts;” tenor Alex Boyer, hailed by The New York Times as a “firm lyric tenor;” and multiple Grammy Award winning baritone Gabriel Manro, who San Francisco Classical Voice calls “a knock-down baritone”.
