The Decorah Chorale, founded and directed by John Bay, is a group of community members who love to sing. Our community currently includes Northeast Iowa and Southeast Minnesota. We practice each Sunday evening during the fall, winter, and spring seasons. The director and all members volunteer our time and energy for the group. Our performances are for community and charitable benefit.

If you need an evening of wonderful music, please attend our concert.

If you love to sing, please come and check us out. Talk to any current Decorah Chorale member, contact John Bay, or email the webmaster.
