Photo: Rick Wallace Welcome to the Vashon Island Chorale's web site! We are dedicated to performing fine choral music in and for the Vashon/Maury Island community. Please feel free to roam our web site to find out more about us. We hope to see you at an upcoming concert, or perhaps singing with us in the future! The Chorale Established in 1989, the Chorale is dedicated to the promotion of fine choral music in the Vashon Island community. The group rehearses weekly and performs for sold-out, enthusiastic audiences at least twice a year in the winter and spring. The organization is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit corporation.
The Members Its members, whose musical skill levels range from dedicated amateur to professional, share a passion for choral music and the desire to work hard and have a good time. Membership is open to everyone over the age of 16. Some choral experience, such as the ability to sight-read music is helpful, though not required. The group varies in size between 70 and 85 men and women. Some limitations exist in the size of each vocal section (soprano, alto, tenor, bass).
The Maestro The Chorale is fortunate to have Gary D. Cannon as its Artistic Director. Gary’s musical abilities include conducting, singing, composing, teaching, and musicological research. The full range of his talents and involvements can be found at www.garydcannon.net
