Founded in 1985 as a performing group of the Carson City Symphony Association, the Carson Chamber Singers have sung at several venues in northern Nevada and in California as far as Sacramento, and sang for the 99th National American Legion Convention in Reno. Open to singers high-school age and above, they have sung with the Reno Philharmonic and perform regularly with the Carson City Symphony.
The Joyful Noise Carson Children’s Choir was founded in 2017 by Nancy Jones for children ages four to twelve. It is an educational program of the Association, and has performed at the Brewery Arts Center, Carson City Community Center, Shepherd of the Sierra, and for the 2018 Nevada Interfaith Thanksgiving Service in Reno. They have been invited to sing for the Nevada Association for the Education of Young Children conference in April 2020.
For information about joining the choral groups, call the Symphony Association at 775-883-4154 or see CCSymphony.com/ccsingers.htm. Concerts are supported in part by public funds through a grant from the Nevada Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts, and by private donations.
