 Dr.
Anne Heider is the Artistic Director Emeritus of Bella Voce, one of the
area’s premier choral organizations. A founding singer of the group when
it began in 1983 as His Majestie’s Clerkes, Dr. Heider held the position
of Artistic Director from 1989 until her retirement in 2005. Under her
leadership, the ensemble made acclaimed recordings, commissioned and
premiered important new choral works, and presented concerts of the
highest quality. She is active as a guest conductor and an acclaimed
arranger and composer of choral music. She also is on the faculty of
Roosevelt University’s Chicago College of Performing Arts, and serves on
the Board of Directors of Chorus America. We were pleased to honor Dr. Heider’s enormous contributions to a cappella choral music at
Gala 2006: “The Black and Red Ball.”
