Together we create magic by upholding our core values;
nurturing meaningful connections, cultivating inclusivity, fostering joy and manifesting excellence.
Nurturing Meaningful Connections
What you see is what you get, and what you get is warm, genuine, uplifting connections and a sense of belonging. Whether you’re a member of the chorus, a member of the audience, a fellow singer, or an interested visitor, we connect with you, authentically and generously.
Cultivating Inclusivity
We cultivate an inclusive chorus through ongoing awareness, understanding, and celebration of our varied and complex identities, experiences, and perspectives. We model open and transparent two-way communication where every member has a voice and contributes to our unique, holistic experience.
Fostering Joy
We know how to have fun! Whatever moment we find ourselves in, joy is a constant energy that centres around our shared goals and achievements, and the friendships and connections that make it all possible.
Manifesting Excellence
To us, excellence means two things. It is a dream, and it is also a standard that we demonstrably live by. By providing education and opportunity in a supportive and safe space, our singers are empowered to be courageous in their musical and personal journeys. Individually and collectively, we dream big and work smart to achieve our goals.
Every Voice Matters
Rhythm of the Rockies Chorus is committed to belonging, inclusion and diversity. We welcome singers of all ethnic and racial backgrounds, disabilities, religions, Cis and trans women as well as non-binary individuals who are comfortable in a space that centres on the experiences of women. Learn more about our intentional approach to creating a diverse, inclusive and welcoming culture.
