Mixed Community Chorus

Based in Wichita, KS

In the early months of 1978, the Wichita Chamber Chorale was founded by Philip Coleman, Michael Pohlenz, Nolen Pridemore and Howard Webb, who had studied music education together and been members of the Singing Quakers at Friends University in Wichita, Kansas. Dr Pohlenz and his friends envisioned an auditioned community choir for adult singers in south central Kansas, and later that spring the Wichita Chamber Chorale presented their premiere concert with an ensemble of 30 of the region's best singers. Dr Pohlenz conducted and Dr John Leavitt accompanied the Chorale before a large and appreciative audience at East Heights United Methodist Church on April 23, 1978.

Founded - 1978.
