The Orange County Women’s Chorus
The Orange County Women’s Chorus is an ensemble of more than 60 singing women representing more than 23 communities in Orange County, plus Los Angeles, San Diego, and Riverside counties. Our repertoire spans many eras and cultures, and ranges from the serious to the silly, but our commitment to performing quality music at the highest level never changes. We’ve been “causing treble” in Orange County since 1997, and as we celebrate our 27th season in 2024 – 2025, we are more excited than ever to bring our music to the community. The Orange County Women’s Chorus made our Carnegie Hall debut on June 27, 2022 with a spotlight performance followed by Franz Joseph Haydn’s Lord Nelson Mass under the baton of Artistic Director, Eliza Rubenstein. We were named an “Outstanding Arts Organization” by Arts Orange County in 2014, and were a prizewinner at the International Musical Eisteddfod in Llangollen, Wales in 2015. We just returned from our third international tour, to Croatia in June 2024.
