Lancaster Chamber Singers Association

The Lancaster Chamber Singers, conducted by Jay W. Risser, has played a major role in quality performances of choral masterpieces in central Pennsylvania since the group’s founding in 1978.  From its inception, the mission of the Lancaster Chamber Singers has been to provide choral ensemble opportunities for experienced voices in the greater Lancaster area and to bring to life for both audience and performer the great choral heritage of our culture.  The select group consists of 35 to 40 auditioned vocalists from varied walks of life from central Pennsylvania.

Performing primarily in Lancaster County and its immediate surroundings, the Lancaster Chamber Singers has also appeared in such prestigious settings as the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C., and invitation-only venues, and has performed numerous benefit concerts for various causes.
