About Us:
Grace Chorale of Brooklyn is a community chorus based in Brooklyn. Our members are a group of singers who bring diverse musical experiences and backgrounds to the group and all share a love of choral music. We are an 85 member chorus with smaller ensembles drawn from our ranks. Under the baton of music director Jason Asbury, the Chorale is committed to serving the wider Brooklyn community by presenting various traditions of choral music. Our concerts include well-known and little-known masterpieces of choral literature from Early Music to Contemporary composers.
Prior to 2014, GCB was known as Grace & Spiritus Chorale of Brooklyn which had been established in 2006 by the joining of two Brooklyn Heights choruses – Grace Choral Society which had a 30-year history in the Heights, and Spiritus et Anima which had been associated for years with the local Saint Ann’s School. The Chorus thrived and grew under the name of the baton of James Busby and now looks forward to new frontiers with its new name and Jason Asbury at the helm.
GCB presents two or three concerts a year in Brooklyn neighborhoods, and is dedicated to performing a wide range of music, including the music of living composers with an emphasis on performing newly commissioned work.
