Bingham Vick, Jr. has announced his retirement as the Artistic Director and Conductor of the Greenville Chorale, effective November 2025. Dr. Vick has been at the helm of the Chorale since 1981.
Over the course of his 44 concert seasons, the Chorale has significantly enhanced its musical prowess, garnered robust community support, and achieved widespread respect and admiration, establishing itself as one of the Southeast’s premier community choral ensembles.
The Greenville Chorale is seeking a new Artistic Director and Conductor for the first time in over forty years. Applications will be accepted until July 31, 2024. We are enthusiastic about this opportunity and look forward to embarking on this next chapter of our storied journey.
The Greenville Chorale is a distinguished symphonic chorus comprising 150 members. We frequently collaborate with the Greenville Symphony and other instrumental ensembles. Within our membership, we have a select 24-member paid ensemble of professional musicians. Recent highlights include being the invited choral ensemble for the Brevard Music Center’s 2023 season opening night under the baton of Maestra JoAnn Falletta, and performing with internationally-acclaimed tenor Andrea Bocelli at his February 2024 concert in Greenville.
The Artistic Director role is part-time, allowing the flexibility to engage in additional professional endeavors within the community or region. Rehearsals are held on Monday evenings at Furman University and our performance venues range from the Peace Center to various local churches. We typically perform five concerts of our own each season. Our concert season often includes a fall concert with an orchestra, a Christmas concert, a winter ensemble concert, a spring concert, and an outdoor summer patriotic concert.
