About the Choir
The Cincinnati State Chorale began in the spring of 2010. Comprised of students and faculty members from a wide variety of musical backgrounds, the Chorale loves to sing repertoire equally diverse, including spirituals, musical theatre, jazz, and classical music. The Chorale recently sang the National Anthem at a Cincinnati Reds game, and sang in the World Choir Games for such distinguished guests as Bob McDonald, CEO of P&G.
