The Gateway Men's Chorus

The Gateway Men's Chorus had its inaugural performance titled "One Voice" in April 1988, with only 22 singers; the Gateway Men's Chorus has become, in the words of The Riverfront Times, "an arts phenomenon". Music Director Michael Cohrs founded the Chorus in the fall of 1987.

GMC grew both in size and artistry under the artistic direction of James Nacy, who led the Chorus for five years from September 1990. Since then GMC has performed a full season series of three major concerts each year.

The Chorus took the Powell Hall stage in October 1996 in "St. Louis Sings". In June 1998 GMC returned to Powell Hall to record "Monuments", the first commercial CD. The following summer the Chorus brought author Armistead Maupin to St. Louis to narrate his "Music for Michael Mouse: Songs Inspired by 'Tales of the City."

The Gateway Men's Chorus has become one of the most successful and long- lived performing arts organizations in St. Louis. GMC is a not- for- profit 501(c) (3) corporation governed by a 12 member Board of Directors. More importantly, though, GMC has stayed true to its mission of producing beautiful male choral music
