Phoenix Chorale

The multiple Grammy Award-winning Phoenix Chorale, based in Arizona, is regarded as one of North America’s leading professional choirs. Founded in 1958, the Chorale’s mission is to nurture and amplify the strength and resonance of Arizona’s choral artistry. All professional artists who sing in the Chorale live in the state, many of whom teach voice and direct music activities in Phoenix metro-area schools and community colleges and have studied in the state’s strong collegiate choral programs. Phoenix Chorale presents four concert experiences each season between October and May in the Phoenix Metro Area, with musical works spanning five centuries including composers, poets, and lyricists from across the globe and representing creative artists of all genders, creeds, and colors. The music and words we share aim to resonate personally in some way within each listener, whether they join us live in the room or through our recordings and videos. The Chorale has a strong history of recording, releasing a seminal album celebrating the work of former composer-in-residence Ola Gjeilo as well as recordings focusing on Rheinberger, Rachmaninov, and Grechaninov.
