Congressional Chorus welcomes singers ages 8 to 98 into its multi-generational family, where they share their love of singing with the wider community. In schools where music programs have been cut, it offers students full scholarships to join a youth chorus, developing teamwork and fostering artistic excellence. Adults across the city audition for its hundred-strong choir that presents three major multidisciplinary concerts annually, including a musical cabaret. Seniors come together weekly in its Northeast Senior Singers group, one of the only local programs providing performance-centered experiences for older adults. Accessible transportation and enlarged lyric sheets allow all to participate, while a diverse range of presentation styles (from jazz to spoken word) appeals to many music lovers. At Congressional Chorus, one finds friends of different ages and backgrounds with whom to diversify and champion American music.
