Our Mission

The mission of the Boise Master Chorale is to establish and maintain a tradition of choral excellence, to be a vital part of the arts in Idaho, and to enrich our communities through choral music education and performance of major choral works.

The Boise Master Chorale is a 100 voice auditioned community choir that has served the greater Boise area since 1975. The Chorale has produced more than thirty years of choral masterworks, often collaborating with local arts groups including the Boise Philharmonic Orchestra, Boise Baroque Orchestra, Ballet Idaho, the Treasure Valley Concert Band, Idaho Dance Theatre, and others.� The Chorale has recently commissioned two new chorale pieces: Sons of the West by Vijay Singh in 2004 and And None Shall Be Afraid by Dr. Paul Aitken in 2008.�

The Chorale maintains membership with Chorus America and is funded in part by the Idaho Commission on the Arts, the Boise City Department of Arts and History, and generous contributions from local businesses and community members. Thanks to members of the Chorale for their generous 2008 singer contributions.
