The Irving Chorale has been making beautiful music in Irving for over 36 years. Their voices have graced many stages in the DFW area and all over the world.

The future of the Irving Chorale is bright for the 2023-2024 season as they will be performing a mix of vocal pieces in solo and collaborative performances–from classical to Broadway. Join them in celebrating the beauty of choral music.

Irving Chorale’s mission is to promote the highest standards of choral performance and share our love of singing and music in Irving, the Dallas/Ft Worth Metroplex, the State of Texas and around the world.

We collaborate with other arts groups to highlight all areas of performance and establish a greater presence in Irving and surrounding communities.

We hope to impart the love of choral music to younger singers and influence them to maintain participation for future generations through outreach and education.
