Want a peek behind-the-scenes?
Interested in a behind-the-scenes choral experience? We'd love to welcome you to Chicago Master Singers’ open rehearsal on Monday, November 24 from 7:30–8:45pm at Countryside Church in Palatine. We encourage singers from all voice parts to come and get a sense of our ensemble. No need to prepare anything, simply RSVP here by November 20, then come and sing! ​

Be Inspired


For nearly five decades, Chicago Master Singers has been sharing great choral works and new works by living composers, performing unaccompanied and in collaboration with professional instrumentalists and soloists, and giving performance tours throughout Europe. Learn more about our exceptional programming and our outreach with youths, seniors, and the next generation of composers and singers. Learn more here.

Choral Excellence

CMS inspires singers and audiences through personal connections and musical excellence. Here's just one example—the famous hymn arranged by Alice Parker for the Robert Shaw Chorale. More can be found on our YouTube channel.
