About Us

About the Society

The Valley Choral Society is comprised of singers from throughout the greater Sacramento, California valley and foothill area.

The mission of the Valley Choral Society is to break down barriers and create a common bond by performing music that elevates the human soul and brings God's light to the community.

The Fall concert series traditionally features Part I of the Messiah and beautifully arranged Christmas carols. A mixture of contemporary and classical work is featured during the spring concert series.

In addition to choral members, other individuals volunteer their talents, which sustains the Valley Choral Society's mission and goals. Support for the Valley Choral Society comes through membership fees paid by members of the chorus and donations from individuals and organizations. The society dedicates its spring series performances to benefit Sacramento Area Habitat for Humanity chapters.

In addition to the annual fall and spring concert series, the Valley Choral Society has performed with the Folsom Lake Symphony Orchestra, the Sacramento Camellia Symphony Orchestra, performed at the Sacramento Interfaith Service Bureau's annual Dorothy Booker Memorial Musicale, participated in the annual Wasatch Chorale Festival hosted by the Utah Valley Choral Society of Provo, Utah, sung at the annual Senior Spectacular formerly sponsored by KCTC radio, inaugurated the original summer concert program at the Sacramento Capitals Allstate Tennis Courts, and VCS has joined area choirs in the annual "A Call for Unity" concert, among other appearances.

We are please to be part of the greater Northern California tradition of outstanding artistic achievment in music and to have so many of our members realize individual success and advancement.
