Dutch Fork Choral Society

A community choir serving the Irmo / Chapin area with the mission to share, preserve, and advance the art of choral singing while developing the talents of our members by performing a varied and challenging repertoire. Our membership includes young people whose high school and college experiences have motivated them to seek community choral opportunities. We also have many lifelong singers who love the health and emotional benefits of singing.

Established in 2001, the Dutch Fork Choral Society is a non-profit 501 (C) (3) all-volunteer community choral ensemble with a passion for sharing the gift of music. Through participation, members can preserve and advance the art of choral singing, in addition to developing their talents. Currently the Society performs two formal programs each year and a mid-winter fundraiser. The Society does not charge admission to its formal concerts. We also have a strategic goal of finding more opportunities to partner with other area choral and instrumental groups. Donations and sponsorships are gratefully accepted at those concerts.

Testimonials

We provide a chorus for interested individuals from high school through retirees to maintain, improve, and share their musical talents. Singing has the potential to provide some health and emotional benefits, especially as people age. It keeps them in engaged in mentally-stimulating activities, especially as they learn new music or memorize certain passages.
