Background: Congressional Chorus
Home page: www.congressionalchorus.org
About:
The Congressional Chorus, a multi-generational family of choruses reflecting the diversity of our nation’s capital, champions American music. Our mission is to inspire people to embrace our common humanity through choral music. We promote the choral arts through artistic excellence, innovative performances and active community engagement; and provide affordable music education and performance opportunities to aspiring adult singers of all ages and backgrounds.
Since our founding in 1987 by Congressional staff who wanted to share their love of singing by reaching out to the local Capitol Hill community, the Congressional Chorus has grown into an organization performing a full season of concerts and serving members and audiences from throughout the metropolitan area. From an original membership of 13, today’s family of choruses includes an 80-member auditioned adult chorus, a 24-member a cappella chamber ensemble, and the NorthEast Senior Singers (NESS), a free musical engagement chorus for senior citizens.
