Medford Community Chorale
About
The Medford Community Chorale is a community choir for youth and adult singers, working under the motto “United By Song.” There are no auditions; the only requirement is a love of singing, and new members are always welcome. Alongside the full adult chorus, the group runs a Youth/Young Adult Chorus with its own shorter rehearsal. Rehearsals take place on Wednesday evenings at First Baptist Church in Medford Square during the fall season.
The group’s 2026 holiday concert, “The Very Best Time of Year,” benefits the Walnut Street Center in Medford, which supports adults with intellectual disabilities. Performances are broadcast on local cable in Medford and Malden, and WBZ’s Jordan Rich has interviewed director Betsy Pesce about upcoming shows. The chorale is supported by grants from groups including the ArtsAlive Medford Foundation and the Medford Arts Council.
