Chloe’s formal music training started at age 6 when she was accepted to the Special Music School where she began training on piano. It was singing in the choir, however, that began a lifelong love of vocal harmony and ensemble singing.  Whether she is giving a recital, recording a demo in the studio or acting in a live production, Chloe is happiest when her schedule is full of diverse, challenging and collaborative work. 

Her recent solo engagements include a Guggenheim Works & Process Commission: To the Body by Nico Muhly - performed as part of the exhibition Yu Hong: Another One Bites the Dust, on view concurrently with the 60th Venice Biennale. She performed Couperin’s Leçons de Ténèbrae with the Saint Andrew Music Society, and a solo recital at Lehman College Art Gallery for Concerts in the Heights. In 2023 Chloe made her Alice Tully Hall debut with the American Classical Orchestra under the direction of Thomas Crawford. “Holgate wielded a clear straight tone that flexed and tapered beautifully” (New York Classical Review). 

A member of vocal trio ModernMedieval Voices, Chloe has performed at the Met Museum, the Cloisters, Dumbarton Oaks, Washington National Gallery, for Princeton Chamber Music Society and at Saint Thomas Church. Their debut album, Words of Love and Wisdom was released in 2023 under the Ulysses Arts label. It features the chants of Hildegard von Bingen and commissioned works by  American composers Caleb Burhans, Daniel T. Davis and Caroline Shaw. Alongside Modern Medieval Voices and the United States Air Force Band, Chloe was featured in the premiere of grammy-winning composer Chris Tin’s new concert work, To Shiver the Sky. Their upcoming engagements include a performance The Living Word for Early Music Now in Milwaukee and a concert of original compositions by Princeton graduate composers as part of Princeton Sound Kitchen.

In recent seasons Chloe has been a featured soloist with the TENET, Kollective366, American Soloists Ensemble on their tour of South Korea, Ensemble Échappé, Chatham Baroque, Folger Consort, and Prototype Festival, when she performed in the NYT Critic’s Pick Acquanetta directed by Daniel Fish. As an ensemble singer  Chloe performs regularly with Musica Sacra, Voices of Ascension, Trinity Wall Street, Virtuoso Singers and Artefact Ensemble. 

In addition to performing, Chloe is arranges music and composes works primarily for treble voices. She performs with her sister, violinist Lily Holgate under the name Sibyl. Their debut album will be released later this year!
