About

The Mon Yough Chorale is a non-sectarian group of singers. We perform for many organizations and municipalities in and around Western Pennsylvania. Anyone wishing to sing is welcome and invited to come to a rehearsal to preview the group prior to committing to the group. No auditions are necessary. Our repertoire consists of many types of music: Patriotic, Broadway Show Tunes, Gospel, Sacred, Baroque, Renaissance, Jazz, Light Tunes, and Holiday, among many others. Give us a try and see for yourself!

Our rehearsals are held each Sunday at Sampson’s Mills Presbyterian Church fellowship hall at 1665 Lincoln Way White Oak, PA 15131.

If you, or someone you know, may be interested in joining, please email us at monyoughchorale@gmail.com. Your can also go the the Membership Information page and complete the request form.

We are proud to be a building partner with Sampson’s Mills Presbyterian Church.  The church provides us with a space to practice weekly, a safe, dry place to store our music and keyboard, color copies for our flyers, and supports us in countless other ways.  In turn, the Chorale is made aware of church drives and fundraising events, and volunteer opportunities and helps out whenever possible.  The church’s most recent initiative was the addition of a ramp at the main entrance of the church.  This ramp was installed to invite people of all physical abilities to enter their space through the same door.  The ramp is particularly appreciated at our concerts.  If you would like to contribute financially to their incredibly undertaking, you may do so by clicking HERE.  You may make a one-time donation to the General Fund and add a note that says “RAMP”.  If you would like to learn more about Sampson’s Mills Presbyterian Church, you may also visit their website.
