Community Chorus

Based in Albuquerque, NM

In 1934, a group of singers called the Albuquerque Choral Society informally organized to practice and perform choral music in Albuquerque. Among its earliest directors were Dr. Kurt Frederick of the University of New Mexico and Dr. Hans Lang, under whose direction the chorus sang with the Civic Symphony Orchestra. Subsequent directors have included Dr. Charles Woodul, Roland deRose, Harry R. Hook, Michael Cooke and Verallen Kleinhenz, Gary Wayne Pyland and Renato Estacio-Burdick.

Renamed the Albuquerque Civic Chorus (ACC) in 1953, we're a true community chorus of more than 80 singers with diverse backgrounds, musical experience, ages, and occupations. We offer Spring and Winter Holiday concerts programs at a variety of venues. We've also performed for civic functions, at schools, with the New Mexico Symphony Orchestra, and Albuquerque Opera Theater productions
