Our Concert Season
The Chorale presents both paid and free outreach concerts throughout the year as a culmination of its members’ efforts to enhance the community’s appreciation and love for a variety of music. Outreach concerts give special consideration to local retirement and nursing home facilities that may be under-served by other arts programs. Concerts have incorporated other community musical groups, including the DuPage Symphony Orchestra, the Wheaton Municipal Band, jazz and string ensembles, instrumental soloists, and other chorales, such as the internationally renowned Glen Ellyn Children’s Chorus. In addition to its twice-yearly community concerts, the Chorale has performed at Pheasant Run (with Kenny Rogers), the Oakbrook Marriott Hotel, Windsor Park Manor, Wyndemere Retirement Communities, Beacon Hill, Brighton Gardens, Wheaton Autumn Fest, Kane County Cougar baseball games and Brookfield Zoo’s Holiday Magic. Community outreach concerts are performed at Marianjoy Rehabilitation Center, DuPage Convalescent Center, Hines VA Hospital, the Glen Ellyn and Wheaton Christmas Walks, and various community festivals and parades. In 1994, the Glen Ellyn-Wheaton Chorale was incorporated as a non-profit in Illinois.
