After over 50 years of service as a volunteer organization, the chorus is dedicated to achieving excellence in choral presentations. With over 130 members, under the direction of Dr. Pearl Shangkuan since 2004, the chorus has reached an admirable level of artistic choral performance. The chorus performs major works with the orchestra during the Richard and Helen DeVos Classical Series and Fox Motors Pops Series concerts. For more information about the chorus, please click
