VOP Members

Inspired by the numerous gay and lesbian choruses across the country, and bolstered by the support and encouragement of Compass and MCC of the Palm Beaches, the men founded the first local gay chorus for the people of Palm Beach County.

The dream was to craft a musical organization with the highest musical and performance standards, encouraging diversity and respect for all people through music. VOP would become a strong member of our thriving arts community - adding yet another facet to the jewel that is Palm Beach county! 

And now...that dream has become a reality!

• To encourage acceptance of diversity and respect for all people through music.
• To entertain the Palm Beach County community with quality music from a gay men's chorus.      

• To project a message to the community of pride, acceptance and respect.
• To provide an arts organization in Palm Beach County that promotes communication and positive change in our society.
• To perform in a welcoming and open environment for the celebration of individuality through the art of music.         

VOP is a member of GALA Choruses, an international organization of gay/lesbian-identified and supportive choruses.  GALA's membership includes more than 10,000 gays/lesbians, bisexuals and their families and friends - from more than 190 choruses in the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia.
