Do you enjoy singing but aren’t sure where or how to find a group? Sing in the car or shower and are ready for primetime? Did you sing years ago and are a little rusty? We would love to connect with you because we are looking for singers to join us. Voices in the Oaks (VIO) celebrates our 10th anniversary in 2026, and we are planning a fabulous arrangement of music favorites from past concerts such as Feelin’ Groovy, Salute to Veterans, Schubert to Simon, etc.
Our weekly, 6 p.m. Thursday night rehearsals start Jan. 15 at Vista de la Montana United Methodist Church in Catalina. We will rehearse there weekly for 12 weeks with a week off for spring break leading up to our concert on April 11 at 5 p.m. in the SBR ballroom, a second performance at Vista UMC on April 12 at 3 p.m., and a third performance at St. Mark’s UMC on May 3 at 3 p.m. You do not have to read music or audition to join us. We have a small fee to participate in Voices that covers our music costs, but you can come try us for free for the first two rehearsals.
On Dec. 1, 2025, Voices in the Oaks served lunch to over 50 people at the Oracle Community Center (OCC) Monday Lunch event as part of our community outreach efforts with the proceeds going to OCC. We would like to thank all of our concert donors, audience, and fans for your enthusiastic participation and support and we wish you all a very happy 2026. We can’t wait to see you at a rehearsal or at our concerts. We also thank donors to our Student Conductor Fund. Each season since 2019, Voices in the Oaks has hired a talented doctoral student from the University of Arizona to lead the chorale as our paid choral conductor and Artistic Director. This arrangement has allowed our chorale to work with gifted young conductors who bring fresh energy and ideas to us while providing valuable work experience for the students.
Contact us anytime at 520-276-9251 and we can answer your questions. For more information on VIO or to register for the 2026 Spring Season, visit our website: voicesintheoaks.org. Voices in the Oaks Chorale is a section 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
