Entering its second decade, (Seraphic Fire ) is widely regarded as one of the most important vocal ensembles in the United States. Led by Founder and Artistic Director (Patrick Dupré Quigley ), Seraphic Fire brings singers from around the country to perform repertoire ranging from Gregorian chant to newly commissioned works. The ensemble’s recordings ''Brahms: Ein Deutsches Requiem'' and ''A Seraphic Fire Christmas'' were nominated for two 2012 GRAMMY awards. Seraphic Fire was the only choir in North or South America to be nominated, and the only classical ensemble in the world to be nominated for two separate projects. In addition to a critically acclaimed chamber choir, the organization has established Firebird Chamber Orchestra, which collaborates with Seraphic Fire on choral-orchestral works as well as independent concerts of orchestral repertoire. Seraphic Fire’s artistic accomplishments have translated to relatively successful album sales. In the summer of 2010, Seraphic Fire’s recording of Monteverdi’s ''Vespers of the Blessed Virgin (1610)'' reached the number one position on the iTunes classical music charts. The ensemble’s GRAMMY®-nominated recording of Brahms: Ein Deutsches Requiem debuted at #7 on Billboard Magazine’s Classical charts, and Seraphic Fire’s newest Christmas album, "Silent Night" of which NPR’s Morning Edition proclaims “the singing is just fabulous; this group has a really excellent blend,” broke into the top ten on the iTunes Classical charts on day of its release.
