Welcome To Honors Choirs! Southeast Minnesota's Premier Youth Choirs
The mission of the Honors Choirs of Southeast Minnesota is to promote the highest standard of excellence in the preparation and performance of choral music, seeking to provide artistic challenge and growth opportunities for youth throughout the region and enjoyment for the community at large.
The Honors Choirs of Southeast Minnesota, founded in 1992 as one high school choir, is today a nonprofit organization of four youth choirs for grades 3-12. Membership is by audition and is open to all students in grades 3-12 who live in southeast Minnesota.
The choirs rehearse weekly throughout the academic year in Rochester preparing challenging repertoire, learning music history and theory, and practicing ear training techniques. Each year, approximately 240 singers from 27 southeast Minnesota communities sang in the choirs.
