Mancos Valley Chorus, organized in 1998, is committed to performing six free concerts per season for Mancos and the surrounding communities. We also sing during the Mancos Old Fashioned Christmas festival and perform for July 4th and Mancos Days celebrations. It is the mission of the Chorus to provide an artistic outlet to adults who love to perform music, while adding to the community’s cultural offerings.
Singers may join the Chorus without auditioning. The size of our group is currently limited to 36, to fit our rehearsal facility. A dues scholarship is available for anyone for whom the $20 fee would be a hardship. We hold around 12 weekly rehearsals to prepare for each concert. Rehearsal CD’s are provided for each member of the chorus. Music Director Kriss Larsen accepts the dual roles of playing piano and conducting during rehearsals, and Lee Bartley joins the group as accompanist for dress rehearsals and performances.
