Community Chorus at South Berwick Building Community Through Music

Building Community Through Music

The purpose of the Community Chorus at South Berwick (CCSB) is to promote choral music; enrich community life in the greater Seacoast area with fine choral music; provide singers of various levels, as well as area musicians, the opportunity to perform and to expand their musical knowledge and experience; and engage the arts community as an active and visible participant.

Let’s hear it for the CCSB Altos! 📢

Often called the "middle children" of a chorus, our Altos are the essential glue holding our complex harmonies together. 🤲

This role perfectly reflects our CCSB values of inclusivity and collaboration. Group singing is a "powerhouse of connection," and about 73% of singers report feeling significantly less lonely because of their choir family.

Altos are more than a section; they are a force that has everyone’s backs! 💖👯‍♀️

Let’s give a shout-out to our baritones and basses! 📢🕺

Achieving a perfect musical balance between sections is a key part of our vision for musical artistry. Whether you're singing high or low, we value the collaboration it takes to make our specific CCSB sound.🚶‍♂️🎼

Did you know that over 54 million Americans sing in a chorus? 🎼That is more than 1 in 6 adults! Even during our summer break, we love knowing we are part of such a massive musical family. 👪

Our CCSB community is built on the value of inclusivity, where every voice is heard and valued. That's why we have so many long-term members: Everyone is special, and everyone is appreciated 💛💚💙💜

Pun of the day: What do you call a sneaky choir? A group full of treble makers! 😂

The Community Chorus at South Berwick is an inclusive, welcoming community where respect, commitment and collaboration create harmony. Our audiences only get to see the results a few times a year, but the feeling of friendship and shared mission shines through at every rehearsal and interaction.

We're on hiatus during the summer, but we'll be highlighting our board and its acitivities, singer happenings, and our upcoming plans. Keep checking in to keep tabs on us!
