About Kern Valley Chorus

Kern Valley Chorus is a membership organization of female singers, who meet regularly to practice, perform, socialize, and have fun. We currently have over 20 singers of all ages, all walks of life, and all parts of the Kern River Valley area.



 

Performance

The main purpose of Kern Valley Chorus is to get out and perform. We sing at annual shows, a number of community events, and at an annual competition. We also perform Singing Telegrams around Valentines Day and Christmas. We are available to sing at your next function or event. If you're looking for a unique musical experience to liven up your event, please check out our Hire Us section.


Education

In addition to sharing our music with others, another great passion of ours is learning more about the art of acapella singing. Vocal instruction is a regular part of chorus rehearsals, and a very important component of the chorus experience. A number of times a year, we will get coaching from a visiting master in the art of barbershop, where we learn many fabulous tricks of the trade.


CompetitionIn the spring of every year, Kern Valley Chorus participates in the Region 11 chorus competition in Bakersfield, CA. Competitions are a special time for quartets and choruses from our region to come together to sing for each other, and get some constructive feedback from a panel of judges.
