Each year, the Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration Chorus performs at the Cleveland Orchestra’s Community Open House Day to honor the legacy of the Civil Rights leader.
Cleveland Orchestra
Children's Chorus
The sixty-member Cleveland Orchestra Children’s Chorus performs annually with the Cleveland Orchestra and Cleveland Orchestra Chorus at Severance Hall and during the summer Blossom Festival. Membership is open by audition to boys and girls entering 5th-8th grades.
Cleveland Orchesta
Youth Chorus
The 120 members of the Cleveland Orchestra Youth Chorus are in grades 9 to 12 and represent some 40 schools and communities. Like the musicians in the Youth Orchestra, these singers are chosen through competitive auditions.
The choral groups created by The Cleveland Orchestra embody a long-standing commitment to choral music. Together, these choruses provide both outstanding vocal music for orchestral performance and exceptional opportunities for community involvement in music-making.
