The Santa Barbara Master Chorale was formed in 1984 to
present major works primarily in the oratorio tradition. Phillip McLendon, our inspiring and inspired first Music Director, led the Chorale for over two decades through
an impressive body of work. Steve Hodson is carrying forward this Santa
Barbara tradition starting with the 2007-2008 season.
