Choral enthusiasts will want to check out the San Gabriel Chorale, a growing organization of volunteer singers of all walks of life and varying musical ability.

For over twenty years, the San Gabriel Chorale has presented large-scale choral works with orchestra for the enjoyment of our audiences both near and far. In recent years, members of the San Gabriel Choral have participated in tours to Carnegie Hall, Central Europe, and China.
