Mission Statement

The mission of the Portland Symphonic Choir is to sing choral masterworks with excellence and passion and to engage, educate and inspire its members and the community.

About This Cause

Established in 1945, the Portland Symphonic Choir has a long and rich legacy of bringing great choral music to the Northwest. The members are comprised of both professional and volunteer singers and come from all over the Portland area. Under the new leadership of Alissa Deeter, the Portland Symphonic Choir continues a reputation of excellence and dedication through creating powerful, accessible choral experiences for all kinds of music enthusiasts— from the experienced musician to the brand-new listener. In addition to performing major works with ensembles including the Oregon Festival Orchestra and the Oregon Symphony, the Choir regularly commissions and premieres choral works by composers from the Northwest and across the US including such notable artists as Jacob Avshalomov, Morten Lauridsen, Tomas Svoboda, and Bryan Johanson — several recent concerts have celebrated American music and its rich history of song. Bringing music to the community is a key part of the mission of the Portland Symphonic Choir. A proud participant in the Arts for All program, the Choir provides low cost tickets to Oregon Trail Card participants. Each summer Portland choral music lovers are invited to sing along with members of the Symphonic Choir at Summer Sings.
