Welcome to the Lockport Chorale
Welcome to the Lockport Chorale
The Lockport Chorale is an adult singing group established in 1982 by Charles Green. Mr. Green directed the group for 19 years, performing a wide variety of sacred and popular music.
Currently, the group is under the direction of Ms. Liz Staley and accompanied by Mrs. Debbie Hutter. It consists of about 20 able SATB singers who enjoy challenging materials and new musical experiences. Although the group is centered in Lockport, members come from all over the Western New York area. Repertoire covers a broad range of music, from the classical sacred pieces to Broadway tunes, light jazz and standards. The selections are made with an eye to stretching the abilities of the group, and providing challenging opportunities for the singers. The Chorale has also performed jointly with various church choirs, the Lockport Community Band, The Easy Street Band, the Lockport Community Children's Chorus, the Lockport School Show Choir, The Niagara Catholic Choir, The Barker High School Choir, The Lock City Glee Club The Lockport High School Advanced Jazz Ensemble and the Hoover Middle School Chorus.
Rehearsals are held Tuesday nights from 7 to 9 PM at the Christ Episcopal Church, 7145 Fieldcrest Dr., Lockport, NY 14094. We generally perform A Holiday Concert and a Spring concert, but also fill in the year with other performances, including local nursing homes and other groups looking for entertainment.
Newcomers are always welcome. Check the UPCOMING PERFORMANCES tab for details, or please contact us through our facebook page, facebook messenger or email Lockchorale@gmail.com.
