Harmony happens together.

At VocalEssence, our mission is about more than music – it’s about community.

We firmly believe that when we join our voices in song, something unique happens: we come together, unified around a shared purpose, connecting through the deeply human experience of singing together.

This kind of connection is needed – always, and perhaps right now more than ever.

Music has the power to bring us together. When you support VocalEssence, you demonstrate the belief that our lives are richer and fuller when we connect to each other – across differences and through our shared humanity. 

In a choir, every single voice matters – and the same is true here. Community support powers all that we do. Donate to VocalEssence and be at the heart of bringing Minnesota communities together through song.

Here are just a few examples of VocalEssence’s work in the community: 

  • Engaging singers of all ages: From children and students throughout the Twin Cities who are served by our school programs to the volunteer and professional singers in our Chorus and Ensemble;  From the older adults of our Vintage Voices program to the audience members who raise their voices with us in song, VocalEssence recognizes, celebrates, and empowers singers of all ages to connect, create, and sing. 
  • Combating loneliness and building connection: Now celebrating 10 years, the VocalEssence Vintage Voices program integrates singing into the everyday lives of older adults. Guided by a desire to create a welcoming atmosphere and remove barriers for participation, these choirs sing to build community, combat loneliness and isolation, and improve physical and emotional wellbeing.
  • Expanding the definition of choral music: From classical music to hip-hop, folk song and more, VocalEssence ensembles pioneer ways to strengthen Minnesota’s community through thrilling and diverse musical experiences.

  • Inspiring audiences in Minnesota: Founded in 1969, Minneapolis-based VocalEssence has decades of history as one of the world’s premier choral music organizations. While our influence is global - our focus is local: inspiring and connecting Minnesotans.

Give now to fuel the special kind of connection that VocalEssence - and singing together - make possible. Thank you for your support!
