Twenty Fifth Season

The Western Colorado Chorale is a 45 voice auditioned choir with the objective of presenting high quality classical choral music concerts in the Grand Valley area.  The choir is directed by Dr. Monte Atkinson, Director of Choral Activities, Mesa State College.  The choir normally performs three major concerts each year: one featuring the Chorale with small instrumental ensemble; a traditional Christmas concert; and one concert with the Grand Junction Symphony orchestra.  Past concerts have included major works such as Bach's Mass in B Minor, Brahms' Requiem and Haydn's Creation as well as smaller but delightful works like John Rutter's Gloria or Joseph Haydn's Lord Nelson Mass.
