Community Chorus

Based in Oak Park, IL

Chicago Choral Artists is an ensemble of dedicated musicians that has been presenting innovative music making to Chicago audiences for over 40 years. CCA continually seeks to present excellent interpretations of engaging repertoire, creating a vibrant thread of music which connects the director, the singers and the audience. CCA programs often feature new commissions and music of indigenous cultures in tandem with fresh interpretations of classic masterworks.

Founded in 1975 as the James Chorale, Chicago Choral Artists has enjoyed many performances here and abroad including programs and interviews on NPR, WBEZ, WFMT, WNIB, and ABC TV. "Tidings of Comfort and Joy" was named one of the best holiday recordings of 1998 by John von Rhein of the Chicago Tribune and also received a glowing review in Fanfare magazine. "Polished elegance. . . atmospheric performance. . . (they) stand out from the crowd." - Lawrence Johnson, Chicago Tribune
