Discover Your Voice

Ensembles are spaces of belonging—where every voice is welcomed and valued. Rooted in acceptance, inclusivity, and joy, we come together to listen, to laugh, and to grow. Here, you’ll discover your own voice while shaping something larger than yourself, connecting through music that moves and inspires. Guided by a passionate Artistic Team, the journey is as meaningful as the sound we create.

Choir is a safe space where we value acceptance, inclusivity, listening, humor, a positive spirit, and mutual support — no matter your skill level or experience. A non-audition community to discover your individual voice, grow our collective voice, and connect with others through music. Remarkable music. We value the Artistic Team’s experience to guide and lead with passion, warmth, and respect.

Chamber Music Ensemble is a great opportunity to collaborate with other musicians, deepening your experience in the five skills of chamber music: watching, listening, being sensitive, being flexible, and adapting. This instrumental ensemble performs alongside our choirs, and some members enjoy playing instruments they haven't played for a while. We have strings and winds, and look forward to adding brass players.
