A Long Tradition of Song...
As the premier vocal chorus in the area, the Waukesha Choral Union
has been musically active in the community for over 50 years.
Originally a combination of the Carroll College student chorus and
community singers known as the Waukesha Choral Society in 1949, the
group became the Town and Gown in 1961 and the Waukesha Choral Union in
1974, taking its present form as an auditioned choir in 1978.
About the 2007-2008 Concert Season...
The theme for this season’s concerts, Music
for All Ages, emphasizes
the fact that classical vocal music is a gift to be enjoyed by young
and old alike.
The fact that these pieces retain their
popularity and
impact years if not centuries after they were first heard shows that
they are not works for just one age, but for all ages, and for more
ages to come.
