Berkshire Concert Choir, Inc.

The Berkshire Concert Choir was organized in 1978 to give people who are interested and able to learn all forms of music an opportunity to produce and perform fine choral music. Auditions are not required.

The choir roster varies from 45-60 people from season to season with interests and repertoire that range from classical to contemporary in varied genres.

The choir’s annual performances have generally included: Annual fall and spring concerts produced by the Choir; participation in annual benefits for a food pantry and a heating fuel assistance program; four “summer sings” that invite the community to sing with chorus members; and singing as the chorus or as small groups drawn from the chorus at events sponsored by community organizations

Performance Venues have primarily been churches but have included an arts center, an historic home, senior citizens’ residences.  Rehearsals are held on Wednesday evenings during the singing year in the Pittsfield High School chorus room.
