Since its founding in 1990, Chorus Abilene has been a cornerstone of the arts in West Texas. What began as a 23-member adult ensemble dreamed up by Dr. Betty Karol Wilson has grown into a powerful community organization with five active choirs. From young children to senior citizens, singers from across the Big Country unite under one goal: to share the joy of choral music.

Their mission remains clear and heartfelt: to educate the hearts, minds, and voices of singers while promoting choral music through performance and participation. Over the years, the group has performed throughout Texas and toured internationally, from Hawaii to Italy, Ireland, and Greece.

A Night of Music and Meaning

The time has come for one of Abilene’s most anticipated fall events, the Fall Chorale Showcase, happening Saturday, October 18th at 7:00 p.m. at First Baptist Church Abilene.

Whether you love traditional choral arrangements or modern melodies, this showcase truly offers something for everyone.

What makes Chorus Abilene so special isn’t just their talent, it’s their heart. The singers represent the spirit of West Texas: family, faith, and community. Each performance is more than a concert, it’s a celebration of togetherness and the power of music to connect people across generations.
