Welcome to Chorus Austin!
Our Mission: We enrich lives and engage communities by uniting voices in song.
Our Vision: Every person can find their voice.
Core Values:
Excellence: A commitment to the highest artistic and professional standards, fostering musical growth and delivering impactful, high-quality performances.
Connection: Building meaningful relationships through music—among singers, with audiences, and within the broader community—to create shared cultural and emotional experiences.
Inclusion: Embracing diversity and ensuring that all individuals, regardless of background or identity, feel welcomed, valued, and empowered to participate fully in the choral arts.
A rich tradition of great choral music and modern musical innovations mark Chorus Austin, a non-profit community-based organization dedicated to bringing great choral works to Austin and the Central Texas area. Under the Chorus Austin umbrella are its two ensembles: the Symphonic Chorus and the Chamber Ensemble. Each group offers a distinctive concert experience for both audience and singers under the baton of Artistic Director and Conductor Ryan Heller.
We strive to build this community by:
Performing choral concerts and musical programs of professional quality
Providing artistic development opportunities to its members and the community
Bringing choral music to new audiences through outreach and education programs
Initiating creative programming and introducing audiences to otherwise inaccessible music
