Angel City Chorale (ACC) is a band as much as it is a choir in the traditional sense. Consisting of 120 singers, ranging from full-time musicians to business professionals and hobbyists, ACC members sing together with the warmth and boisterousness of best friends hanging around a camp fire.
Performing an extraordinary repertoire ranging from Classical and Folk to Pop and Gospel, ACC makes the art of music come alive with a repertoire of remarkable breadth.
ACC is fast becoming recognized as the premier vocal ensemble of Los Angeles! After people hear and see their first ACC concert, they always remark on the group's wonderful sound as well as how much fun the choir has performing together.

"An excerpt from a review of ACC's 2006 Holiday Concert"
"Last weekend I attended a holiday concert here in Los Angeles, presented by the wonderful Angel City Chorale. As I listened to everything from Silent Night to Chanukah music, I realized that Christmas has truly become a non-religious holiday for me."
"A few years ago, I would have made the same statement but for cynical reasons - Christmas has become a completely superficial, consumer-driven event divorced from any real meaning. Now, although Christmas is no longer a religious holiday for me, I am willing to see that it does have meaning. As I listened to the Angel City Chorale and looked at the amazingly diverse audience enjoying the music, I had to believe there was still some magic left in Christmas."
