Where Every Voice Belongs

Students in Marlborough’s choir program explore a diverse repertoire that spans classical masterworks, contemporary pieces, and global traditions. Along the way, they develop strong vocal technique, sight-reading skills, and a nuanced understanding of musical interpretation. Regular rehearsals emphasize ensemble unity, tone, phrasing, and expressive delivery, all in a supportive and inclusive environment. The Concert Choir, Chamber Choir, and Melodic Mustangs perform regularly at school concerts, lunchtime shows, and travel for performances across the country, creating powerful, shared musical moments that resonate far beyond the classroom.

Julia Migenes, Vocalist In Residence 2014

Julia Migenes was born on the Lower East Side of New York into a family made up of a passionate mixture of Greek and Irish-Puerto-Rican descent. Despite a difficult and violent childhood, she discovered her calling upon engagement of the child role in Madame Butterfly where she first experienced the power and the emotion of music linked to a stage setting.

A few years later, while studying at the New York School for Performing Arts, she was chosen by Leonard Bernstein to be a soloist in his Young People's Concerts. Julia then began her Broadway career; she was part of the original casting of Fiddler on the Roof with Zero Mostel and she interpreted Maria in West Side Story.

However, she understood that her real calling was to sing, leading her to a cover contract at the New York Metropolitan Opera. While substituting for the leading role of Alban Berg's, renowned for its technical difficulty, she was cheered and acclaimed by the public, launching her opera career.

While on stage in Geneva as Salomé, the Italian film director Francesco Rosi was casting for his up and coming film Carmen. The lead role required not only an opera singer and dancer but also an actress sensual enough to personify the burning passion of Bizet's character. The result was Julia Migenes immortalized in a motion picture that has since become a reference in the filmed opera genre. The soundtrack not only brought her a Grammy Award but even more worldwide notoriety that allowed her to access the greatest theaters in the world.

To this day, Julia Migenes has recorded more than 20 albums. Among the most recent are Vienna conducted by Lalo Schifrin, a Gold record six months after its release ; in 1996, Man of la Mancha (L'homme de la Mancha), conducted and arranged by Paul Gemignani, with Placido Domingo, Samuel Ramey, Mandy Patinkin ; in 1999, Robert Stolz and The music of Franz Lehar for BBC and in 2000, Donizetti's Catarina Cornaro.
