Chorale Ensemble

The Virginia Beach Chorale Ensemble, under the direction of Dr. Krudop, is composed of 17 members from the full Chorale. This group performs a variety of music throughout the year as part of the Chorale’s community outreach. They share music in local venues including churches, schools, retirement communities, city events, and memorials. 
The ensemble has completed their first performance of the 2026 season, singing for a very appreciative audience at the Westminster-Canterbury facility on Shore Drive.
