Angelica Cantanti Youth Choirs
Since 1980, thousands of young people have felt the power of choral music change their lives, build and strengthen friendships, and create memories and skills that last a lifetime. Angelica holds auditions year-round for boy and girl singers in grades 2- 12. Led by professional conductors, the choirs rehearse September - May and meet once a week for rehearsals at the

Bloomington Center for the Arts. Bloomington Chorale
Whether you like to sing or relax by listening to music, you may already know how music can enhance your life. Numerous studies affirm the benefits of music: good health, well-being and longevity. Do something fun and healthy for yourself, your family and your budget. Join many others who have made our concerts a holiday or springtime tradition. Continental Ballet
Continental Ballet Company has both a performing division and an educational division. In our performing division, the Company contracts with adult, professional dancers to present a season of classical ballet. In our educational section, we offer daily ballet lessons at the Bloomington Center for the Arts and also visit local schools with educational programs. Under the direction of Founder Riet Velthuisen, the Continental Ballet Company has earned a reputation for preserving and sharing the art of classical ballet. Medalist Concert Band
The Medalist Concert Band, a volunteer group comprised of 70 Twin Cities area musicians, was founded in the fall of 1968. The primary purposes for the band continue to be to provide adult musicians with an opportunity to perform; to provide Bloomington and the surrounding area with outstanding musical concerts; and to provide young musicians with a model of music as a lifelong avocation. NOTE-able Singers
Let NOTE-ABLE singers entertain you! Delight in the song and dance talents of Bloomington’s dynamic women’s show choir. With both a Broadway repertoire and a Christmas repertoire, the group entertains multiple audiences with a variety of songs. The group rehearses every Tuesday evening from August through May at the Bloomington Center for the Arts and performs throughout the year at community events.
