About us.....
Based in Marion, Massachusetts, about 55 miles south of Boston, the Sippican Choral Society is a non-audition, regional community chorus made up of singers with varying skill levels. For over 50 years, the Sippican Choral Society has provided music to the Southcoast region.
The chorus performs for two seasons per year; a Christmas concert in early December in and a Spring concert in late April or early May in Marion. The Christmas concert has attracted approximately 80 singers, while the Spring concert has had about 50 to 60 singers. The numbers are temporarily smaller due to the effects of Covid. The organization also has a Chamber Chorus consisting of a smaller number of choral members.
Rehearsals for the Christmas concerts begin the 2nd Monday in September and are held every Monday evening from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. until the concerts. The Christmas concert consists of sacred Christmas music, some classical while others are more modern and popular.
The Spring concert rehearsals begin the 2nd Monday in January and are held every Monday evening from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. until the concert. The music includes a broader selection of classical, sacred and popular music.
Music for each concert is chosen by a Music Selection Committee made up of chorus members, working in collaboration/cooperation with the Music Director. The final program is then approved by the Board of Directors, hereafter known as The Board.
