The Grove City High School Men's Chorus is a non-auditioned concert choir that meets for 25 minutes in two different sections each day. The choir meets often after school to rehearse as a full group. They work for the highest standards in musicianship skills and challenge themselves with the repertoire they learn and perform. The group has been featured in concert with the Miami University Men's Glee Club and Bowling Green State University Men's Chorus. The choir has been invited to perform at the Ohio Music Education Association Professional Development Conference as well as the Ohio Choral Directors Association Summer Conference. They have consistently received superior ratings at district and state level OMEA-adjudicated events in the highest classification. The choir is honored to perform at The Ohio State University today.
