Great River Chorale

Inspire, Enrich, Connect!

OUR STORY: Great River Chorale was founded in 2001 to INSPIRE, ENRICH and CONNECT the community through choral music performed at the highest artistic level. We are an auditioned community choir based in Saint Cloud, MN. Our 55 members range in age from 23 to 76 and live in communities across Central Minnesota. Great River Chorale presents an annual concert season, collaborates with local and regional guest artists, and is the principal choral partner of the Saint Cloud Symphony Orchestra. Our artistic managing director is Dr. Mary Kay Geston and our collaborative pianist is Barbara Brooks. Visit greatriverchorale.org for more information.
