OURORGANIZATION

San José Choral Productions (SJCP) was founded as the San José Choral Project in September of 1996. Led by founding director Daniel Hughes, the San José-based chorus met with early successes marked by performances for the American Choral Directors Association, the California Music Educators Association, the National Association of Composers of the USA, and a performance by invitation to represent California at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., as part of the California State Day Celebration.

In 2002, the group changed its name to The Choral Project and embarked on a journey of international recognition. In 2004, The Choral Project took 2nd place in the Mixed Choir competition at the 58th annual International Eisteddfod in Llangollen, Wales. In July 2007, The Choral Project placed in all three categories at the California International Choral Festival & Competition in San Luis Obispo, CA, taking home 1st place in the Choir’s Choice category, 2nd place in the Required Pieces category, and 3rd in the Folk Music category. October 2011, The Choral Project will be competing at the International Choral Competition in Tolosa, Spain. This prestigious competition is part of the European "Grand Prix."

Recently, the SJCP family expanded to include Menharmonics, a men's chorus. 2010-2011 marks SJCP's 15th anniversary of musical excellence.
