ABOUT US
About Us
The Memphis Mens Chorale was first organized in the summer of 2006 by singers from two downtown congregations, Calvary Episcopal Church and First United Methodist Church. The then 12-man group was known casually as 12 Good Men in reference to the 12 voices (3 men on 4 parts) the group believed would be needed to sing the music they had chosen. At the end of the summer, the ensemble decided that their work was too accomplished to disband and MMC was born. MMC is no longer associated with any particular congregation or faith, though we kindly accept the hospitality of the churches in which we rehearse and perform. The Memphis Mens Chorale (MMC) is a community vocal ensemble of over 20 professional and amateur musicians united by the love of choral music. MMC performs concerts each year at various locations throughout Greater Memphis. MMC is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.
