Individual Giving
The singers of CMS devote their time and talent to bringing you the best in sacred choral music, both familiar and little known; to lifting your spirits and bringing you joy that enriches our communities. Concerts are often accompanied by the outstanding professional musicians of the Ars Viva Symphony Orchestra and soloists. You may not realize it, but even a sold out audience covers only about 40% of the cost of these concerts.
You can help Chicago Master Singers continue presenting extraordinary choral music at the highest level by choosing to include us in your giving plans. Your generous support ensures we will be able to offer you these special programs for years to come. You have our heartfelt thanks and gratitude!
