Leadership

Jennifer Kane is an active conductor of ensembles that specialize in treble repertoire. As the Founder and Artistic Director of NOVA Women’s Choral Project, she combines her passion for this repertoire with a love building community, a belief in the strength of women’s voices, an eagerness to forge new paths for the choral music experience, and a dash of entrepreneurial spirit. Kane’s recent engagements include serving as Music Director of Cantilena Women’s Chorale in Arlington, MA, and Guest Conductor of the Concord Women’s Chorus.

Kane is also a conductor with the Handel and Haydn Society Youth Choruses, where she directs children ranging in age from 8 -15 in rehearsals, performances, and in regional tours. Since joining H+H in 2014, Kane has conducted choristers in prestigious venues such as Jordan Hall and Boston Symphony Hall, and most recently in Hochstein Hall in Rochester, NY to perform for the Eastern Division of the American Choral Directors Association.

A frequent clinician and guest conductor, Kane has prepared choirs for collaborations with groups such as the Cantata Singers, the Back Bay Chorale, Boston Musica Viva, the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Voices Rising, and the Worcester Chorus. She received a B.A. in Music from Furman University, an M.M. in Choral Conducting from Georgia State University, and a D.M.A. in Conducting from Boston University.
