About Buffalo Girlchoir
Buffalo Girlchoir was founded in 2015 with the goal of providing exceptional music instruction in the city of Buffalo to girls from all social strata who love to sing. Our first rehearsal took place on October 19, 2015 with 9 singers. By the end of our inaugural season, we had 24 enrolled singers. We continue to grow and flourish and today have more than 80 singers ages 5-18 in 4 ensembles. We have been invited to sing in community events and alongside professional ensembles such as the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra.

Celebrating Diversity
Buffalo Girlchoir is a choral organization for young women ages 5 and up, offering a nurturing and joyful environment for singers from diverse backgrounds. We empower our choristers to excel as artists and individuals, helping them find their voices.
We value diversity, equity, and inclusion and actively promote these ideals. They are essential for fostering a shared experience and creating a positive and inclusive environment for all young women. We provide opportunities for singers regardless of socioeconomic status and cultivate an open learning environment to benefit our choral community.
Our organization welcomes female identifying and gender non-conforming youth who sing in the treble range.
