History

In 1967, a small group of music lovers in the suburban Boston area started informal gatherings at their houses to sing Chinese songs. A choral society was established, and in 1981 the group formally joined the Greater Boston Chinese Cultural Association (GBCCA), known as the GBCCA Choral Society (GCS). 
 
"Enhancing Friendship through Music" has always been the core value of the Choral Society. Collaboration with other choral groups over the years has given GCS the opportunity to promote this idea beyond the limits of the Society and even of the Chinese community. As a choral group of GBCCA, GCS also shares the objective of promoting Chinese heritage, with music as its medium. 
 
In recent years, besides its annual concert, GCS has been actively performing in cultural events and joint concerts with other choruses in the New England area as well as abroad. GCS has grown steadily and currently has 20+ enthusiastic members.
