Two Rivers Chorale (TRC) is a versatile Minneapolis/St. Paul community choir, comprised of skilled and seasoned amateur singers representing the rich choral heritage of the upper Midwest. Seeking to enhance and expand the tradition of Minnesota choral excellence in the Twin Cities and beyond, we accomplish this through masterful performances of quality choral literature, providing inspiring musical experiences in free concerts for our audiences.
Our History
Active throughout the culturally-rich twin cities of Minneapolis/St. Paul, Two Rivers Chorale was founded in 1998 by Bruce Phelps and has been led by artistic director and conductor Timothy Sawyer since 2004. A community choir of 75-80 singers from all walks of life, TRC presents 2-3 concert programs annually (November, February and April) in a variety of venues throughout the region. TRC celebrated its 20th anniversary in the 2018-2019 season. For more insights into who we are, check out this video: https://youtu.be/p7PeO0J8BGI

Our Mission
Our Mission
We come together to delight in the beauty and transformative power of choral singing. Together we create fulfilling musical experiences for ourselves and for a growing and appreciative audience.
Our Vision
We are proud to be a community choir. We come together to create a singing community in which we belong as members and which brings us joy. Through studying, rehearsing and performing diverse repertoire of both sacred and secular music from around the world, we strive for the highest goals of artistic achievement. Our concerts are usually thematic and can vary dramatically from one concert season to the next, bringing a wide variety to the experience and excitement of seeing “what’s next?!”
We seek to share our concerts with an ever growing audience of choral music lovers. To do this, TRC concerts are free of charge whenever possible. This allows us to touch many lives and brings the arts to people who may otherwise not be able to attend such concerts.
• We bring the arts to experienced concert goers who delight in the mastery of our choral offerings.
• We welcome children, teenagers and young adults to show them how music can be an ongoing part of their adult lives and encourage lifelong choral appreciation and participation.
• We provide free concerts in order to be accessible to patrons on a limited income, to welcome families for whom buying seats for each person might prove prohibitive, and most of all to give the gift of music to all who would like to attend.
•We are proud to be a community choir.
• We are proud to bring free concerts to our community.
• We are proud to lead the way, helping to ensure the future of a thriving choral arts community.
