“Then the singing enveloped me. It was furry and resonant, coming from everyone's very heart. There was no sense of performance or judgment, only that the music was breath and food.”

The Gettysburg Choral Society Inc. is an auditioned regional chorus of volunteers. The chorus is open to all singers ages 18 and above who match the specific needs of the chorus and demonstrate vocal competence. Prior choral singing experience and the ability to read music are REQUIREMENTS! 

We rehearse on Monday evenings from 7-9pm at Trinity United Church of Christ in Gettysburg, PA. We perform concerts at various locations across the county including the United Lutheran Seminary Chapel, Trinity UCC and other venues.

People interested in joining the chorus may schedule a personal audition by texting or calling our director, John McKay, at (717) 476-1054 or by emailing him at zoemckay@aol.com, or by sending us a Facebook message.

*We have a particular need for tenors and basses at this time, but will audition all voice parts.
