Travel and Touring

The DeKalb Choral Guild has an extensive travel history.The Guild's first tour in 1983 included peformances in historic churches in Switzerland, Austria and West Germany. The Guild presented concerts in the Lutheran Church of the Ascension in Savannah, Georgia and Christ Church in Washington, DC, in 1987. Crossing "the pond" again in 1988, the Guild participated in the Bristol International Music Festival during a tour of England and Wales. The Guild has had further tours in the Southeast, including trips to Alabama and Florida and many performances at the Piccolo Spoleto festival in Charleston, South Carolina.

Performance in Rome

In September of 2005, the Guild returned to Europe with a tour of Germany and the Czech Republic, that included stops in Berlin, Leipzig, Dresden, Weimar, Rothenburg and Prague.

In 2008, our Season 30 ended with a tour as the representative chorus of the state of Georgia for the American Festival of Music in Italy, featuring performances in the Vatican in Rome, as well as concerts in Assisi, Florence and Venice.

We are gearing up for a new travel and touring experience, this time to Ireland, planned for the Fall of 2021.
