Our Mission
Our mission is to build a diverse group of singers, 50 years and older, regardless of race, disabilities, ethnicity, or musical background, whose singing together bears witness to the unifying, healing and joyful power of choral music. Our pledge is to highlight dynamic musical experiences with a commitment to a variety of music that can be performed with energy and excellence, growing each individual’s musical abilities as we come together in rehearsal and performance.

Singing is for Everyone!
WHO? ME?
Yes, YOU! You have the gift of a unique and special voice that is all your own, even if you have not used it to SING since grade school. You can sing at the top of your lungs in the shower, or along with your favorite songs on the radio. But MAGIC happens when many voices sing together. An uplifting energy fills the room, and all those unique voices join together to make music that is more beautiful and joyful than any one voice on its own. |
Allegro: A St. Louis Choral Community is a new chorus for anyone 50 years or older who wants to sing. Our founding director, Merry Keller, loves to help people find their best singing voices, and wants you to grow in your ability to open your voice to sing with your whole body, heart and soul.

Come sing with us!The important word is COMMUNITY. We have come through a year when doing anything in a group has been impossible. With vaccines readily available, NOW is the time to reconnect and restore those important personal interactions beyond the safety net of zoom and the telephone. Our membership fee is $55 per concert cycle.

When does Allegro rehearse?
Allegro’s in person weekly rehearsals begin January 24th. We’ll be meeting at Kirkwood United Church of Christ, 1603 Dougherty Ferry Road in Kirkwood, with lots of parking, easy access and good lighting. We will start rehearsing for our Spring concert, which will be "Fill The World With Song".
