WomenSing

https://womensing.org/

Founded in 1965, WomenSing is an auditioned chorus renowned for its vibrant and beautifully blended sound. The repertoire includes both the traditional and the unexpected, featuring great landmarks of the women’s chorus repertoire, seldom performed works, new music, commissions from nationally recognized composers, and familiar music from all eras. Performances include rewarding collaborations with major performing groups and the finest Bay Area musicians, and special choral events to help raise awareness of community and global issues.

Awards and honors include support from MetLife Meet the Composer and Lafayette Community Foundation for their support of new music, the Chorus America/ASCAP Alice Parker Award for adventurous programming in 2010, the 2010 Contra Costa County Arts and Culture Commission Award for Excellence, and being one of six Bay Area choirs selected to perform during the Chorus America Annual Conference June 2011 in San Francisco.  

WomenSing has performed throughout Europe, Asia, Latin and South America, Canada and the United States.  During the summer of 2019 WomenSing traveled to Greece and joined with El Sistema Greece to perform with the children’s chorus at the Eleonas Refugee Camp, as well as performing in a wide range of other venues. In early 2020 WomenSing, along with the Lafayette-Orinda Presbyterian Church Choir welcomed and joined in a concert with the Jerusalem Youth Chorus, a choir that promotes dialogue through song among Israeli and Palestinian high school students in Jerusalem.

“We are very impressed with your Chamber. We have been members of other Chambers over the years and it’s been nothing like the experiences we’re having right out of the gate with your organization. Thank you for your great communication, follow up, and professionalism.”
– Peter Dewey, Bayview Painting

“I couldn’t have asked for a better resource than the Chamber, as I was establishing my medical practice in Lafayette. AJ, Holly, and Sara were so responsive to my questions and gave me many ideas on networking in the community. They host several events that foster community building. I honestly cannot imagine a more robust, active, and friendly chamber as this. I’m a member for life!”
– Cheruba Prabakar, Lamorinda Gynecology & Surgery

“WE LOVE THE CHAMBER! Batch and Brine has been a member of the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce for almost six years. We value and appreciate the incredible amount of work this organization produces for our community through many events and support for each business. The networking and education of information that’s spilled out weekly for the business community is impressive. They are a helping hand in so many ways for our business community and beyond. We couldn’t be part of this community without being part of the chamber. Lafayette Chamber is one of the best organizations we’ve worked with, so don’t think twice about it, join the Chamber!” – Rolla Ghaben, Batch & Brine

“The Chamber was instrumental in helping us open 14 years ago. The staff went out of their way to help us make connections and ensure we were successful. We would not be where we are today without the Chamber!”
– John & Colleen McCormick, Lamorinda Music
