ABOUT

US

Chorus Angelorum Chattanooga strives to make the beauty and power of choral music accessible to all. We are committed to offering free performances and online recordings, ensuring that everyone, regardless of background or circumstance, can experience and enjoy choral music. We are dedicated to bringing together local voices to celebrate the incredible talent within Chattanooga. We aim to establish and support a diverse community, and to foster the development, advancement, and promotion of classical choral music of all genres.

Our Story

Chorus Angelorum is proud to be a part of Chattanooga's musical heritage. The ensemble was formed in early 2020 with the intent of safely providing online choral concerts, both sacred and secular, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning in the 2021-2022 season, as COVID restrictions were lifted, we added live concerts to our concert schedule. However, we continue to provide as many recordings and concert streams as possible. We believe that digital access to concerts and events is one more way to ensure everyone has access to the culture and happenings of a community.
 

Composed of local vocalists, the choir draws its members from a variety of diverse backgrounds and occupations; Many members of the ensemble find their primary occupation in fields outside of music, yet they remain extremely active in our community's musical events. Several members are also music educators and additionally maintain successful solo careers. All the ensemble's singers are members of other local choirs such as the Chattanooga Bach Choir, Choral Arts Society, Opera Tennessee, and CSO Chorus, as well as participants in various church choirs. Chorus Angelorum is committed to fostering a diverse environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity volunteer ensemble. 

 

Chorus Angelorum is under the artistic direction of Janelle Wigal Wagoner.
