Our Members
Over the past 50 years, the SAMC has become a leading promoter of the choral music and arts education in Central Minnesota. This is due to the dedication of our directors, muscians and chorus members - some of whom travel up to 100 miles to rehearse each week. From seasonal concerts to musical theater and dinner concerts, the chorus has entertained with a repertoire from classical composers to folk, pop and sea shanties.
