🌈 Baltimore Men's Chorus Presents: Joy in Defiance – A Spring Concert
When the world demands silence, we respond with song. When hate tries to divide, we answer with harmony.
Join us for Joy in Defiance — a spring concert that refuses despair, celebrating resilience, courage, and the unbreakable spirit of community.
Baltimore Men’s Chorus is proud to be Maryland’s longest-running LGBTQ+ performing arts organization.
The BMC welcomes all male singers – regardless of gender identity or sexual orientation.
​Since our launch in 1984, we have performed in many locations including New York City, Seattle, Philadelphia, Annapolis and, of course, Baltimore. The BMC is very proud of its long tradition of providing the Baltimore community with a wide variety of exciting choral music.
