What a finish! We did it!!!

Because of you, our Spring Campaign is 100% funded with a little extra as a sweet, sweet bonus.

Because of you, the music continues. Our community continues. We are so grateful.

You all showed up with heart, generosity, and a profound belief in the power of live choral music.

To every person who donated, shared, sang, volunteered, attended, encouraged, or cheered us on:

THANK YOU for helping keep Pittsburgh Concert Chorale singing.

Stay tuned! We have so many delightful performances on the way.

Today's the last day. 🎵
The Because of You spring campaign closes tonight at 11:59 PM — and we're at 93% of our $15,000 goal!

We've spent the last six weeks sharing what PCC means to the people who show up every week to sing. Family during the worst times. Therapy.* A sanctuary. A place to find your passion again. Friends you didn't know you needed.

That's what your support makes possible.

And we saved something special for the finale. Our accompanist Bryan Sable is offering a custom improvised performance video to one lucky donor — inspired by your favorite song, artist, or musical theme. Donate $50 or more tonight and you're entered. Every $50 = one entry. Winner announced tomorrow, May 16 at 10 AM.

👉 Give at the link below or in bio.

Can't give right now? Any amount moves the needle, and sharing this post genuinely helps us reach people who care about live choral music in Pittsburgh.
We love what we do. And we sing because of you.

It’s the final countdown.
Because of you, the arts go on.

We’re at $13,169 of our $15,000 spring goal, with just 2 days left! So close!

🎹 Donate here: https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?donation=pghcc

And because finishing strong should be fun: every $50 donated by May 15 at 11:59 PM EDT earns one entry to win a custom improvised performance video from Pittsburgh Concert Chorale accompanist extraordinaire Bryan Sable, inspired by your favorite song, artist, or musical theme.

POV: It’s not the easiest time to be an arts organization at the moment. Grants are harder to secure. Families are watching budgets. The world feels heavy.

But honestly? That’s exactly when the arts matter most.

Think of the song you play on repeat when life feels like a lot. Think of the exhale when live music starts. Think of the familiar faces who greet you in the lobby, the joy of shared experience, the reminder that you’re not carrying everything alone.

As researchers at the Cambridge Institute for Music Therapy Research note, “Singing is a cognitive, physical, emotional and social act.” Research has also shown that even complete strangers can form unusually close bonds after singing together for just an hour.

That community? That connection? That’s what you help create.

If you’ve been waiting to donate, this is your sign.

And if you’ve already donated? There’s always room to toss in another entry if you’d love to hear Bryan create something just for this moment.

Money tight? Every gift, at every level, is deeply appreciated and helps keep the music going.

And if a donation isn’t in the cards right now (see reasoning above), sharing this post helps more than you know. Truly. We love this community, and we’re grateful for every kind of support.

Contest Details:
One entry for every $50 donated.
Winner will be drawn on Saturday, May 16 at 10:00 AM EDT and notified directly, with the opportunity to choose the song, artist, or musical theme Bryan will improvise.
Then stay tuned for the performance video reveal.

Thank you for your unwavering support. We love what we do, and we get to keep singing because of you.

https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?donation=pghcc

Because of you, Bryan will turn your musical idea into a one-of-a-kind performance.

We’ve already raised $11,000 toward our $15,000 goal, and every gift helps carry us to the finish line!

If you’ve been waiting to donate, this is your sign.

And if you’ve already donated? There’s always room to toss in an entry if you'd like to hear a special piece.

If you'd like to donate less, any all donations are so greatly appreciated. And if a donation isn’t in the cards right now, sharing this post helps more than you know. We love and appreciate you.

***The Details***
One entry for EVERY $50 donated. Winner will be drawn on Saturday, May 16th, and 10 am. Winner will be notified and given the opportunity to choose the song Bryan improvises. Stay tuned for the performance video to drop.

As we took our final bows on Pittsburgh Concert Chorale’s 41st season, we found ourselves feeling deeply grateful.

Because of you, it was an incredible season, capped off with audiences dancing in the aisles at Music of the ’90s. So. Much. Dancing. It was the best.

We’re now in the final stretch of our Spring Campaign, with 46% of our fundraising goal reached. Would you help us keep the music going? Who wouldn’t want more chances to dance?!?

Donate Here! https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?donation=pghcc

And thankfully, we’re not done yet. We have summer events ahead, and even more music to share with this community we love so much.

Thank you for attending Music of the ’90s. Thank you for cheering us on, singing along, and dancing with us. Thank you for supporting Pittsburgh Concert Chorale through your donations, your service and your applause.

Your support turns volunteer passion into something audiences can truly experience: packed halls, standing ovations, live music, shared joy, and a sense of community you can feel in your soul.

Because of you, our staff and volunteers have the tools they need to succeed.

Because of you, our wonderful office manager, Hannah Balash, keeps the organization running smoothly behind the scenes.

Because of you, our front-of-house superstar and board member, Kashmir Sainiak, has helped create a warm and welcoming experience for audiences concert after concert. As she ends her term on the Board, we are so incredibly grateful to her.

Because of you, we have venues and music and programs and a band. Because of you, we have the incomparable artistic duo of Susan Medley and Bryan Sable. Quite simply, we do what we do because of you.

And while our Board of Directors serves entirely as volunteers, they could not do this work without the staffing, venues, music, operational support, and infrastructure your donations help provide.

It takes talent to make music.
It takes people to build a community.
And it takes support to sustain both.
Because of you, the music goes on.
