The VocalEssence name is synonymous with excellence in choral performance. Internationally, our choruses are recognized for their flawless sound, innovative programming, and commitment to today’s composers. Closer to home, our concert series have been a well-known Minnesota tradition for more than 50 years.

Learn more about VocalEssence performing ensembles:

  • VocalEssence Chorus—Our 110-voice chorus was called “one of the irreplaceable music ensembles of our time” by Dana Gioia, past chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts.
  • VocalEssence Ensemble Singers—Established 1991, our 32-voice professional choir is known as one of Minnesota’s most highly trained, experienced and professional group of singers.
  • VocalEssence Singers Of This Age—Founded in 2017, this dynamic group of 40 Twin Cities teenagers sing, dance, write their own music, rap, and—most importantly—reflect the diversity of our community in its membership.
  • VocalEssence Vintage Voices—This program fosters the creation of choirs in assisted living communities and senior centers.
