Whatever my mood when I arrive, it is always better when I leave a Forest Hills Choir rehearsal.

I am Forest Hills Choir because I am music, I am song, I am voice, and I am community.

The Forest Hills Choir is a fun & casual, yet disciplined group to sing with. It's a joy to have such a high-quality ensemble so close to home.
