A Choral Society in Burlington, North Carolina
Organized in 1974, The Alamance Chorale celebrates over 30 years of singing and fellowship in the Burlington-Alamance community. A volunteer organization, the Chorale has fluctuated in size over the years. The group is composed of singers from all areas of the community including teachers, accountants, real estate brokers, secretaries, retirees and others. Many give of their time as volunteers in varied endeavors. The Chorale specializes in sacred and classical music, but its repertoire includes selections from Broadway musicals and popular composers, traditional folk songs, spirituals and madrigals. Membership in The Alamance Chorale is open to anyone who enjoys singing choral music. The goal of The Chorale is "to provide music appreciation as well as music education to the citizens of Alamance County and surrounding areas." These efforts are not without costs. In addition to membership dues, donations from citizens of the community and a Grass Roots grant from the North Carolina Arts Council help to support the Chorale. In the spring the Chorale produces a dinner show as a fundraiser. Chorale members plan, prepare and serve a formal dinner in a lovely and gracious atmosphere of fine dining and then entertain their audience with a variety of light and easy-listening music.
