Historical Note

The Walla Walla Choral Society was founded in 1980 by Lee Friese, a conductor of the Walla Walla Symphony. The Society began under the name, the Walla Walla Symphony Chorale, a singing group that performed with the full Symphony. In 1990, the Walla Walla Symphony Chorale disassociated from the Walla Walla Symphony and became a nonprofit organization called the Walla Walla Choral Society. Dr. Robert Bode, who was a professor at Whitman College at the time, served as the founding director and conductor of the Walla Walla Choral Society. The group performs at concerts and events around the Walla Walla Valley.
