About Ancora

“This is not hiding mediocre voices in a large collective. This is an entire choir of amazingly well trained voices all working together to make sounds impossible to achieve as an individual. It’s a much richer sound than you’re used to hearing with vocals and you’ll be pulled in almost immediately.”

Mission Statement

Ancora is a nonprofit educational organization composed of treble singers who endeavor to improve and develop their vocal talents and music education, continue their commitment to musical excellence, build friendships and support among singers, perform outstanding choral music through a challenging program of rehearsals and concerts, and enrich the arts community by sharing exquisite music for treble voices with the public.

Ancora is a 501(c)3 tax-exempt nonprofit organization in the state of Washington.
