The Amabile Choir of Bainbridge Island, founded in 2013, is a mixed-voice ensemble of 55 singers from Bainbridge Island and the Kitsap Peninsula. The choir’s members range in age from teenagers to retirees – all music lovers who enjoy singing. From founding, Amabile’s purpose has been to express love of music through choral singing. Amabile Choir provides musical education and choral performance fostering a genuine love of singing with a clear understanding of the value of music in people’s lives. Amaile draws from an eclectic repertoire including classical, international, jazz and religious works Amabile aims to provide meaningful cultural experiences for the community. It performs two concerts annually, in late spring, then during the holiday season, in the beautiful St. Barnabas sanctuary, which the church generously provides in keeping with its own spiritual commitment to community service.

Never heard of it? That’s our specialty! Familiar favorites and famous titles are well-represented by other local performing arts groups. We aim to provide our local community with exposure to rare, unusual, and/or out-of-mainstream theatrical works which for various reasons would not find a home at other local venues. Through these lesser-known works we seek to foster community engagement, dialogue, and understanding of history, politics, and the different ways of living, thinking, believing and behaving in society, and to provide more opportunities for inclusion in the performing arts to traditionally underrepresented groups.
