Our 2023-24 and 2025-26 season heralded great success with our special Symphony Chorus who performed at the December concerts those years. We are continuing our tradition of great musical performance by offering a 2026 Symphony Chorus for our December 19th concert for the 2026-27 season.
This year's chorus is in collaboration with Dr. Chris Hathaway and the UWL Choral Union. Performing Handel's Messiah, this choir will be a top tier event for the La Crosse community and the holiday season.
