Why You Should Join

You should join Elmhurst Choral Union because you want to sing in pro-quality concerts with an orchestra!

Our singers and conductor are friendly, and you'll have a great time singing with us.

Additional Info for Choristers

Don't be afraid!  Our conductor holds low-key auditions, running you through a vocal warm-up and a song of your choice, to determine your vocal strength and range.  If you've sung in a choir before you'll be fine.

We rehearse on Tuesday evenings, with a Saturday rehearsal before our Sunday performances.

Our singers are the key to our success!  They support what we do, onstage and off, by paying annual dues and being financially responsible for 5 tickets per concert, and by helping us acquire program ads from local businesses.
