Female Community Chorus

Based in Asheville, NC

Womansong is Asheville's longest-running and largest women's community chorus, a welcoming up to 75 member choir and village. We are women of diverse ages, musical abilities. backgrounds and perspectives who sing together to nurture and uplift ourselves and our community.

Lively accompaniment is provided by a variety of instrumentalists, sometimes along with dancing, drumming and poetry. Through both its music and community efforts, Womansong brings women together to nurture our community and our world. The chorus promotes unity and honors cultural diversity with songs that celebrate many themes in women's lives, including empowerment, spirituality, healing and humor.

From 1994 - 2017 Womansong was directed by Debbie Nordeen, who led the chorus through it's 30th Anniversary season in 2017. Over the years, Womansong has performed for a variety of community events and at concert venues all over Asheville, and is proud to support local causes, such as Homeward Bound, Helpmate, Our Voice, Planned Parenthood, and Habitat for Humanity.

Today, Womansong continues to evolve. We are led by our wonderful Artistic Director Althea Gonzalez,and look forward to partnering with local organizations to support and celebrate women's issues.
