Blossom Festival Chorus

Robert Porco, Director

In 1968, The Cleveland Orchestra opened the Blossom Music Center to serve as the orchestra’s summer home. A large new volunteer chorus was assembled for the inaugural concert and included many members of The Cleveland Orchestra Chorus and members of other Northeast Ohio choral groups. The Blossom Festival Chorus has since established itself as a permanent and beloved annual part of the Blossom Festival and has sung well over 100 concerts since its 1968 debut.

The Blossom Chorus has also often joined The Cleveland Orchestra Chorus in performances at Chautauqua, on Cleveland's Public Square for the annual Fourth of July concerts and for the annual Holiday Festival at Severance Hall.
