Bend Camerata- TEDxBend
What started as a group of friends who loved singing together quickly evolved into Central Oregon’s Premier Vocal Chamber Ensemble. Bend Camerata was founded in 2015 by a group of local musicians and educators looking for an opportunity to create a more intimate and innovative choral music experience. Since its inception, Bend Camerata has headlined three standalone performances, and has also collaborated with multiple local groups, including the Central Oregon Symphony, The Dove String Quartet, & Cascade Chorale. The group has also performed for dozens of local music programs, both public and private. Bend Camerata works collaboratively in selecting music and delegating leadership. Our singers also function as directors, and it is a truly unique format that generates a special blend of choral music and friendship. Bend Camerata is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
