The Chorale is an all volunteer group composed of members with varying musical ability and experience.  While auditions are not required, it is expected that members be able to read music, blend acoustically, follow choral direction and attend rehearsals regularly.  Rehearsals are held from September to June, every Tuesday evening from 7:30 - 9:30 PM at Grace Lutheran Church, 13001 Cedar Rd., Cleveland Hts.  In addition, individual rehearsal time is afforded for those desiring it for 30 minutes preceding each regularly scheduled rehearsal.  New and prospective members are always welcome.  Contact Joanne Poderis for more information or just drop in for a rehearsal to check us out.

Funding for the group comes principally from advertising, donations and member support.  Member dues are determined each year by the Chorale's board and are requested from each member at the beginning of each season.

The organization of the Chorale is governed by a Board, an executive director, Joanne Poderis and the artistic Director.  This season the Chorale is working with three artistic directors: Mario Clopton for the December concert, Daniel Hathaway who replaced Michael Seredik for the March concert and David Gilson for the June concert.  The Board appoints various committees to carry out the work of maintaining the function of organization.  The Chorale is a designated 501(c)(3), non-profit organization.
