100 Men in Black, Inc., is an all-male, independent, community-based ensemble with open membership to all within the Triangle and surrounding areas. The group is comprised of males representative of all age groups, ethnicities and walks of life…who love to sing and share the “good news of the gospel” through music.
Founded in 1949, the Choral Society of Durham regularly performs with professional orchestra and regionally and nationally known soloists. The group also engages in outreach to music students in area public schools. The 30-voice Chamber Choir, often featured in portions of Choral Society concerts, presents its own programs in the community.
The Common Woman Chorus' mission is to cultivate connection and change through the healing power of music. Founded in 1983, we are a treble chorus made up of woman-identifying, gender-nonconforming, and transgender individuals. We are an LGBTQ+ centered space and a place for queer joy. We are people always seeking and working toward justice. We believe in the power of our collective voices. The chorus performs two concerts per year and other outreach performances in the community. CWC is a member of Sister Singers Network and GALA Choruses.
The Chapel Choir is the resident choir for Sunday services at Duke Chapel. In addition to providing weekly sacred choral music, the Choir performs two concerts each year, including Handel’s “Messiah,” and has made concert tours in China, Poland, the Czech Republic, England and the U.S.
The Duke Vespers Ensemble is a select chamber ensemble specializing in Early (Renaissance & Baroque) and 20th-century music. The ensemble leads the musical portion of Choral Vespers, a 40-minute candlelight worship service in Duke University Chapel every Thursday at 6:00 pm during the academic year. The ensemble sings at other special services and presents several concerts each year, both at Duke and elsewhere in the Triangle community.
