The Spring season will consist of Felix Mendelssohn’s Elijah, Op. 70 at performances in June 2013.
“When I announced the 2012-2013 repertoire to the choir, a few members actually gave me hugs,” said Christopher Loeffler, Artistic Director of the Central Jersey Choral Society. “From the Mozart Coronation Mass to Mendelssohn’s Elijah, this is really some of the most exquisite and exciting music ever written.”

About the Central Jersey Choral Society
The Central Jersey Choral Society is Mercer County’s second oldest arts group. It was formed in 1949 at the request of the Trenton Junior Chamber of Commerce as the Trenton Community Chorus and later became the Mercer County Chorus and the Greater Trenton Choral Society. In 2009, it changed our name to the Central Jersey Choral Society to better reflect the more regional nature of its members and audience. Throughout its 60 plus year history, the organization has provided professional caliber classical music to the local community and enriched the lives of choral society members and audiences through the performing of a varied selection of high quality music. The CJCS is comprised of both professionally educated and trained vocalists, and individuals with a love of singing. Both find a common voice with the CJCS, and that voice is the music we share with our audiences.
CJCS is supported in part by the Mercer County Cultural and Heritage Commission through funding from the Mercer County Board of Chosen Freeholders and the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a Partner Agency of the National Endowment of the Arts.
