ABOUT PERFORMERS WITH PURPOSE
Designed for youth ages 11-18, the Arlington Chorale's Performers With Purpose (PWP) use choral music to serve their community in unique ways. Each season, these young singers partner with local non-profit organizations to learn about the group's mission, engage in service projects, and use choral music to raise awareness for the organization.
In Season 2024/25, PWP will be performing a world premiere written by Jocelyn Hagen with the Chorale and the Alexandria Symphony Orchestra, and they'll also be singing in Carmina Burana. We'll continue our partnership with Lutheran Social Services of the National Capital Area and participate in several service projects at the LSSNCA Welcome Center in Alexandria, assisting LSSNCA staff and helping refugee families, as well as some outreach performances.
Throughout the season, students participate in a mix of rehearsals, service projects, outreach performances, and Chorale concerts. These opportunities allow young singers to improve their musical skills, develop leadership qualities, assist local non-profits, and make a positive impact on their community.
Members have the opportunity to earn service hours for their work with Performers With Purpose. To learn how to apply for a spot in Performers with Purpose, please e-mail Artistic Director Ingrid Lestrud [email protected].
