OES Chorale

Join the OES Chorale

The Oregon East Symphony Chorale welcomes singers from across the community to join us for our 2026-27 Season. Whether you're a returning member or a new face, we’d love to have you sing with us!

No auditions are required—just a love of choral music and a willingness to rehearse and perform.

Our major choral work of the season will be Gabriel Fauré's Requiem (John Rutter edition), one of the most beautiful and

enduring masterpieces in the choral-orchestral repertoire. The performance will feature the OES Chorale, orchestra, and guest

soloists soprano Natalie Buickians and baritone Mark Billy under the direction of Music Director Beau Benson. Rehearsals,

directed by Chorale Rehearsal Conductor Carly Walker, will take place on Monday evenings at 7:00 PM at Pendleton First

Presbyterian Church.

Vocal scores will be available to borrow or purchase through the Oregon East Symphony office (345 SW 4th St, Pendleton, OR). If

purchasing your own score, please obtain the John Rutter edition.
