The Heritage & Beauty of Choral Music
When you attend a Chanteuses performance, you become an integral part of a community-focused movement.
We sing to share our passionate appreciation of choral music and its ability to reflect the human experience with the beauty and power of ensemble singing. We bring members the possibility to grow as musicians, find personal satisfaction, and deepen community connections. Chanteuses aspires to magnify our mission through performance, commissioning, and collaboration.

Tradition Meets Innovation
We draw from music by diverse composers and works for treble voices and endeavor to move and inspire audiences.
Our performances mix traditional and modern styles to take you on a journey through different era and genres, exploring a variety of music from spirituals and folk tunes to modern beats.
We connect you with poetry set to music from Emily Dickinson, William Butler Yeats, e.e. cummings, and more.
