Today, we announced the final amount for our 2015 holiday fundraiser, benefiting the Harvey Milk Civil Rights Academy (HMCRA), a local K-5 public school in the Castro neighborhood. SFGMC presented a check to HMCRA Principal Ron Machado and members of the Parent Faculty Club in the amount of $30,378.32.

Come try your hand at a roulette table while watching amazing Vegas-style performances and sipping that double – all for a good cause. Featured games include poker, blackjack, and baccarat. Performances by SFGMC’s favorite Divas, Oasis’ own Baloney cast, and tons more – all emceed by SF’s finest cabaret performer, Tim Wagner!

Today, San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus (SFGMC) and Dr. Timothy Seelig, Artistic Director, announced a partnership with the Harvey Milk Civil Rights Academy to help raise funds for the Academy at SFGMC’s upcoming holiday concerts.

Once again, YOUR chorus is making history. In October 2018, the Chorus will be celebrating its 40th Anniversary by taking a concert tour to China. It will be the first LGBT chorus to make such a tour.

Members of the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus will be visiting three other spots around the Bay Area for holiday performances this year. The show is an over-the-top celebration, full of joyful, raucous takes on classic favorites, some stunning new choral works, and plenty of kicking up of heels and cutting of rugs, in usual SFGMC style.

This holiday season, the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus is proud to release Festive!: Four Years of Favorites. Nineteen stunning tracks comprise this brand-new album, recorded between 2011-2015 and conducted by Dr. Timothy Seelig, SFGMC’s Artistic Director & Conductor. Festive! is available here

Holidays in San Francisco: festively decorated cable cars, ice skating in Union Square and the uproariously hilarious antics and stunningly beautiful music of the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus. It is the “alternative” holiday experience only available in the City By The Bay.

The San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus is proud to announce Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, House Democratic Leader as the recipient of SFGMC’s Human Rights Champion Award, to be given during SFGMC’s upcoming Crescendo Turns 10! gala on Sunday, October 11 from 12pm – 3pm at the Ritz-Carlton San Francisco

James composed the fabulous and stunning #twitterlieder: 15 Tweets in 3 Acts song cycle, which had its world premiere this past spring at Davies Symphony Hall for our show “Passion.” The work was performed at the Twitter world headquarters, has since been recorded by the Chorus (purchase here) and published by E.C.

Today, The National Endowment for the Arts announced that the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus was recommended for a $10,000 grant to make a recording of Tyler's Suite, the chorus' landmark collection of commissioned pieces that premiered in March. The 48-minute long song cycle by eight composers celebrates the life of Tyler Clementi, a gay New Jersey college student whose death in 2010 sparked a national debate about cyberbullying.
