SUPPORT OUR MISSION TODAY
Choral Chameleon's mission is to reinvent the art of choral music from every perspective.
We've been working on it since 2008, through a combination of innovative programming and staging, and by educating composers and emerging conductors to become their best musical selves - all sung by those who want to find a place to stretch themselves within a culture of love and of joyful curiosity.
It is this unique culture that has enabled us to quickly move on from cancelled in-person performances and programs, to be able to provide valuable online learning opportunities like this June's Virtual Institute, and to plan creative projects for the Fall that we are just as excited about as we would be for our normal concert venue performances
If you love choral music and the role it plays in bringing people closer together, please consider making a donation to Choral Chameleon today to ensure that we will continue to surprise, delight and inspire through the months ahead, and beyond.

THE THREE ARMS OF CHORAL CHAMELEON
|
ENSEMBLE
The core of Choral Chameleon, the Ensemble, currently comprises of twelve professional singers, representing the best combination of musicianship and diversity of musical backgrounds in NYC. They are fearless pioneers in the world of new choral music and adventurous programming, and who bring Choral Chameleon’s signature experience to audiences beyond the City.

CHORUS
Our semi-professional Chorus of 50+ voices meets weekly in Manhattan, with the Ensemble at its core, and it is changing the way people experience the art of choral singing in their everyday lives. It brings the joy and adventure of the Choral Chameleon way of music-making to a wider array of talented singers and expands the possibilities of how choral music is presented in NYC.

INSTITUTE
The Institute is our educational arm, which encompasses Ear Training Workshops and an Annual Institute for Composers and Conductors of choral music - an unprecedented experience which offers students the chance to explore the world of choral music-making in a loving environment surrounded by some of the most respected professionals on the music scene today.
