As we approach spring,
we are grateful for the love, support and participation
of our singers, volunteers, donors, sponsors
and patrons.
The current Covid-19
situation has changed our calendar, but not our resolve
to engage, encourage
and enlighten
our singers and audiences
with the joy of singing!
We sincerely hope to be
up and singing again
soon!
Please check back HERE
for up-to-the-minute
information!
In the meantime,
take care and...
SING ON!
"PHILANTHROPY IS THE
MARKETPLACE FOR LOVE"

One week in the summer of 2013, Brian Leatherman directed a choir for the national Road Scholar/Elderhostel program held in Ft. Collins. His long-time colleague, Cindy Runkel served as accompanist. As the week of rehearsals and performance closed, Brian suggested that he and Cindy should pursue something like this in Denver, as Brian was due to retire from public education in June 2014.
During the fall and spring of 2014-2015, they discussed and explored the possibility of a day-time, non-auditioned choir for folks 55 or better. A member of the Ft. Collins choir from Maryland suggested contact with Jeanne Kelly of Encore Creativity in Washington D.C. and the rest is history. 5280+ Encore Chorale was founded in July 2014!
