SERAPHIC FIRE’S ARTISTIC DIRECTOR,

PATRICK DUPRÉ QUIGLEY

RECEIVES PRESTIGIOUS AWARD

MIAMI, FL- Seraphic Fire’s Artistic Director Patrick Dupré Quigley, has just been announced as the 2011 recipient of Chorus America’s prestigious Louis Botto Award for Innovative Action and Entrepreneural Zeal.

The award is given periodically to an individual who through his or her work with a member ensemble of Chorus America has demonstrated innovative action and entrepreneurial zeal in developing a professional or professional-core choral ensemble (in operation for at least 5 years). This award was established in memory of Louis Botto for his artistry, selfless service to the choral art, and entrepreneurial spirit in founding the men’s vocal ensemble Chanticleer and bringing it to national prominence as the first professional choral ensemble in the U.S., outside the military, consistently to offer full-time employment to its singers.
