Great Rivers Choral Society, 2024
About GRCS
Great Rivers Choral Society, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, founded in the fall of 2001, is an adult chorus of mixed voices whose objective is to foster and encourage music education and appreciation in southwestern Illinois. The chorus comprises 20–30 volunteer artists from all age groups and walks of life who enjoy singing and are looking for a means of expressing their vocal talents collectively.
OUR MISSION
The goals of GRCS include building and sustaining a strong choral organization in the River Bend area, which will attract a growing audience of music lovers. In addition, by using the expertise of the Music Director and the other members of the chorus with professional music training, the Society will focus on increasing the diversity and difficulty of the music we perform. With this exposure, both the chorus members and the audiences will have their appreciation and knowledge of music expanded. With this increase in the repertoire, the chorus can appeal to varied musical tastes and reach additional audiences.
