Description

The Emerald City Women’s Chorus is a non-audition chorus in north Seattle that provides an easy-going, fun, welcoming and supportive community for all women who love to sing simply for the joy of it.

* We sing a mix of 3- and 4-part music and a variety of genres, including contemporary, classical, folk and rock 'n roll.
* Besides having fun, we continually strive for an excellent sound.
* We value inclusion, all types of music and a manageable time commitment with one rehearsal a week.

We invite women of all ages and all voice parts to join our chorus.

All levels of musical experience and knowledge are welcome, including those who have never sung in a choir or chorus before and/or don't read music. We'll help you succeed!
