Company History
The Hudson Community Chorus was formed in 1988 by Caroline (Corky) Buhler, a long-time Hudson resident and Frank Longstreth, a faculty member at Western Reserve Academy to promote choral singing in the area. From its inception, the chorus has hired artistic directors to ensure a high standard of performance. Seed money was provided by area benefactors.
The Hudson Community Youth Chorus was started in September 2014 as a treble chorus for youth in 6th through 12th grade, and the Hudson Community Children's Chorus, which features 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders, was formed in September 2015.
