The Plano Civic Chorus, Inc., chartered in 1973, is a
non-profit organization that promotes choral singing in North Texas. Three
or four major concerts are presented every year. Programs feature a variety
of choral literature, from major choral works to contemporary favorites.
The chorus numbers approximately 95 members, who represent a variety of musical
backgrounds and professional occupations.
The Chorus has sung at the Texas Choral Directors
Association Convention and has performed such
works as Mozart's Requiem, Orff's Carmina Burana, and Beethoven's
Ninth Symphony at the Morton Meyerson Symphony Center. In October 1995, the
PCC performed with the National Symphony Chamber Orchestra (Washington,
D.C.) as part of Celebrate Plano 1995: An International Arts Festival.
Nine members of the Chorus were selected to participate in the first-ever
National Community Honor Choir held at the 1997 National Convention of
the American Choral Directors Association. In the spring of 1998, PCC celebrated
its 25th anniversary season with a Gala Concert featuring
former directors and singers and the world premier of a specially commissioned
piece, The Sacrament of Light by Michael Cox. Members of the
chorus also performed the Mozart Requiem in New York City at Carnegie
Hall as a part of the Texas Festival Chorus.
The Plano Civic Chorus is available to perform at private
functions and community events. For more information,
