Chorale
The Seattle Symphony Chorale, the official chorus of Seattle Symphony, was founded as the Seattle Chorale in 1953 by Leonard Moore. The Chorale began its formal affiliation with the Symphony in 1976 and now consists of approximately 140 volunteer singers chosen by audition. Currently directed by Joseph Crnko, Associate Conductor for Choral Activities, the Chorale performs with the Symphony regularly each season.
