Promo Interviews On Their Way

We were hard at work putting together a few promotional interviews for The Hyperion Singers and for our fall project. They will give a little insight into who we are, what we're about, and maybe a little glimmer of the creativity we have to draw upon. We hope you enjoy them.

Check back soon!

Introducing The Hyperion Singers

We are an organization in the Minnepolis-St. Paul area who are dedicated to performing the amazing music of the seventeenth and eighteenth century. There is such a wondrous variety of music from that period that has never reached wide circulation and we want to bring it to the public in interesting concert programs.

This coming year will see us growing quickly, and there are several project planned, but as yet we do not have a full season sketched out. We'll be performing a project this fall of dramatic vocal cantatas and chamber duets, so stay tuned.
