The Lenawee Community Chorus
"The Lenawee Community Chorus shall foster the advancement of vocal
music in Lenawee County and enhance the musical interest and
education of county residents."
Founded in 1968, the Lenawee Community Chorus averages 60 members in
ages ranging from 20 to 75 years. The average age of the
chorus is fifty-five. The Community Chorus regularly joins
forces with the Adrian College Choir to create symphonic-size
choruses of 180 singers. For a complete catalogue of works
performed by the chorus, please see our repertoire list.
Rehearsals are held Wednesday evenings 7:00 - 9:00 PM, September
through April in Spencer Hall on the Adrian College campus.
Dues are $30 per year ($15 each semester). Experienced singers are
invited to join by attending rehearsal or contacting the conductor
at (517) 264-3868.
Concerts are given in mid-December and mid-April. No audition
is required to join the chorus; voice placement is done by the
director at the beginning of each season.
The Lenawee Community Chorus is a non-profit organization that
serves as the "Community Chorus-in-Residence at Adrian College". The
business of the chorus is governed by an elected board of officers.

Choral Music –
No other art demands so persua-sively that we dwell in this moment,
right here, where space crosses time, in order to create something
fleeting that we cannot make alone. Here is a positive
addiction – one that brings blessings rather than disease, and one
that makes us appreciate and value those with whom and for whom we
sing. We are most wonderfully human when we sing together . . .
