Community Chorus

Based in Ashland, VA

The Chorale was formed in 2007 as a result of very successful Mozart Requiem and Handel's Messiah performances the previous year. It was founded and originally directed by William Gorton, then Director of Music at Duncan Memorial United Methodist Church in Ashland, Virginia. The Chorale is excited to bring great music to the Central Virginia region.

Currently the Central Virginia Masterworks Chorale is under new artistic director Ryan Tibbetts and remains a fresh and visionary group of between 60 and 70 singers from the Central Virginia area.

Founded - 2007.  

Audition Policy - Sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses are all welcome. Although formal musical training is not required, previous experience with choral singing is encouraged. Simple auditions with the director are for vocal placement within the group.
