Grande Ronde Community Choir (Age 14+)
Spring Term: Thursdays beginning March 31 from 7:00 – 8:30 pm
Concert date: TBA
Come and sing in spring! Art Center East is excited to announce that Grande Ronde Community Choir is restarting after a two-year hiatus. The group, which was founded in 1992, is a mixed-voice choral ensemble for community members, EOU students, staff, faculty, and area high school students. No audition required. The choir rehearses and performs a wide variety of choral literature ranging from major works with orchestra to spirituals, folks songs, and musical theatre repertoire. Knowing how to read music is not required for participation.
Grande Ronde Community Choir meets one evening per week on Thursdays. Rehearsals take place on the EOU campus in Loso Hall Room 123 from 7:00 – 8:30 p.m. The group is open to people age 14 and older and all vocal/music skill levels are welcome. This community music ensemble is made possible through ACE’s partnership with EOU, which donates rehearsal and performance space, and is supported by grant funding, community donors, and local sponsors.
Three or more GRCC concerts are scheduled each year. Annual performances include Choirs of the Valley Concert, EOU’s Holiday Music Festival, March Choral Concert and periodic concerts presented in conjunction with the EOU Chamber Choir, EOU African Drumming Group, Grande Ronde Symphony Orchestra, and visiting choral ensembles.
