Since 1919 The Toledo Choral Society has been sharing the magnificence of Handel’s Messiah with the Toledo community each Christmas season. This year’s performance will be held December 8th 2024, 3:00 P.M. at Gesu Catholic Church in Toledo, Ohio.
​​One of our expenses each year is the renting of a harpsichord. This year we were approached by a generous donor with the offer to match donations up to $1,000 towards the purchase of a harpsicord. The cost of this instrument will be between $5,000 and $6000. Please consider supporting us toward our goal, and ensuring that we can continue to provide music to the Toledo community for another 100 years.
We hope to see you at this year‘s performance and thank you for your consideration.

We hope you enjoy our Virtual Performance of Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus! We appreciated the opportunity to put this piece together, as it allowed us to collaborate and make music even though we were apart.

The Toledo Choral Society received $11,250 in 2023 from The Arts Commission. This funding
is part of the American Rescue Plan Act money received by the City of Toledo and Lucas County that was created to provide support to local arts organizations and artists.
The support will be used for securing venues, hiring musicians, soloists, and advertising
costs associated with our concerts this season.
Thank you to these organizations as well as our team who worked diligently on the
application for us to receive the funding.
