The Harvard Choruses aspires to empower singers, student leaders, and communities by sustaining and advancing choral music education and practice.
​Together we value continuous and ongoing growth for our singers and the choruses at large: as students, through leadership and creativity; as musicians, through dedication to art-making; and as citizens, through community engagement. We seek to embody these values through the student-run nature of our ensembles and our exploration and expansion of choral traditions.
