Our

Story

The Dubuque Chorale is a community organization of singers from Dubuque and the surrounding Tri-State area. Singers of all ages are invited to participate in this non-profit group, dedicated to improving the musical skills of its singers and to providing quality musical entertainment for its audiences.

Founded in 1971 with the vision of making high-quality chorale music accessible to everyone, we’ve remained true to our founding principles: excellence in performance, inclusivity in membership, and service to our community. We’ve been privileged to share the transformative power of music with passionate singers and our community.

Dubuque Chorale is proud to be part of what makes our city culturally vibrant. Through our concerts, children's programs, and community collaborations, we:

  • Provide accessible, high-quality arts programming
  • Support music education to our youth
  • Bring people together across all backgrounds and ages
  • Contribute to Dubuque's reputation as a cultural destination

We believe that music has the power to heal, inspire, and unite. Each time we perform, we're not just sharing songs, we're strengthening the bonds that make Dubuque home.
