United

This original single by Uniting Voices Chicago Composer-in-Residence W. Mitchell Owens III is an uplifting anthem about the strength we find in unity and the promise of change our young people bring into the world day after day.
Christian VO Cquote

"We have to show the best versions of ourselves to set an example for everyone else. We’re in a choir singing songs, but we’re also really helping people and leading the world.”

Christian, Voice of Chicago singer

A Year of Collaboration

Lyric Opera

This season we collaborated on four productions with Lyric Opera, including Carmen, Fiddler on the Roof, Hansel and Gretel and the new American opera Proximity.

Chicago Opera Theater

King Roger, a grand Polish opera, was our first ever collaboration with Chicago Opera Theater. The production featured a choir of more than a hundred singers on stage, including several members of the Lincoln Park/DePaul Neighborhood Choir.

Chicago Symphony Orchestra

We collaborated with the celebrated orchestra on Carmina Burana, Carl Orff's iconic cantata.
