A chamber chorus and orchestra, the Camerata California was formed in the year 2000 to promote the performance of classical instrumental and vocal music. The primary repertoire of the group ranges from the Baroque to Classical periods. Camerata is comprised of professional musicians united in the wish to apply their experience and vocal qualities to an activity of uncommon depth and inspiration. It is a versatile chamber chorus and is capable of carrying any repertoire with a large expressive range. These qualities are made possible because of the training, long experience, and the musicality and voices of its members.

The Camerata California has appeared with its own chamber orchestra as well as with the Auburn Symphony, the Camellia Symphony, Gold Country Chamber Orchestra and the Sacramento Ballet.

Camerata California is a nonprofit public benefit corporation administered by a board of directors.
