Scott Youngs Describes the AMC Experience:
On The Sheer Beauty of Sound and Poetry

Choral sound is everchanging, and astonishing in its complexity.  It is both physical and emotional.  It is an art form driven by listening first and singing second; by being keenly aware and responsive to the sounds of each singer in the group. 

In the Arizona Masterworks Chorale, we believe that singers who listen intently can create a beautiful balance within the group.  Singers who have been trained as soloists, as well as those from other choral backgrounds, learn to modify their timbre and production to blend in the ensemble, enhancing their individual talents and musicianship.  A well-formed or combined group of voices creates a much more beautiful sound with less work or vocal strain.  The whole truly is greater than the sum of its parts.

We focus on learning to sing better and listen better, week by week.  We bring an attitude of joyful hard work to our rehearsals and strive to move our audiences by the sheer beauty of sound and poetry in our performances.  Our repertoire varies from the miniature choral gumdrop to major works; something old, something new, something astonishing, and something to touch the heart.  We find joy in being together, making music together, and in sharing this art with our audiences.
