About Us
Buffalo Niagara Choirs, Inc. is a vibrant, inclusive choral organization serving singers of all ages throughout the Buffalo–Niagara region. Founded in 2012 through the merger of the Buffalo Master Chorale and the Buffalo Niagara Youth Chorus, we bring together a rich legacy of choral excellence with a forward-looking vision for lifelong music-making.
Through our unified family of choirs—children, youth, and adults—we offer a choral experience unlike any other in the region. From a child’s first encounter with choral singing to advanced performance opportunities for seasoned adult singers, Buffalo Niagara Choirs provides a musical home at every stage of life. Our singers come together not only to perform, but to learn, grow, and connect through the shared joy of singing.
We are proud to collaborate with outstanding artists and cultural organizations and to present music that reflects both the diversity of our community and the richness of global musical traditions. Whether on stage, in rehearsal, or in the community, we believe choral music has the power to inspire, unite, and transform.
Our Mission
We are committed to meaningful collaboration, lifelong music education, and celebrating diverse musical traditions from our own neighborhood and around the world. We believe in the power of the human voice and strive to make the transformative experience of choral singing accessible to all.
