Brookdale Concordia Chorale
After 11 years as the Concordia Chorale, our 60-voice adult chamber choir became the resident chorus at Brookdale Community College in the fall of 2012. It is now the Brookdale Concordia Chorale. September brings us to our 18th season. We rehearse in the Performing Arts Center building at Brookdale Lincroft campus on Monday nights at 8pm.

Touring
We have just completed an incredible concert tour of China! We gave 6 concerts with host choirs in 4 major cities. We visited and sang in Shanghai, Hangzhou, Suzhou and Beijing and the Great Wall. Our host choirs were unbelievably receptive and welcoming. They sang Chinese national music and we sang all-American programs. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
In late June 2021 we are touring Portugal and Spain. 48 hours after announcing this tour we had over 40 reservations! We are still accepting reservations for this wonderful trip. Singers and non-singers!
