The Travelers Chorale was founded in 1924 and is the oldest company-affiliated, eight-part choral group in America. Our vocal ensemble has proudly performed in the prestigious Mortensen Hall, at the Bushnell Performing Arts Center, every year since its historic opening in 1930.
During the 1940’s, 50’s and 60’s, the group sang Christmas carols on radio station WTIC, then owned by the Travelers. In 1965, the ensemble sang at the World’s Fair Travelers Pavilion in New York City.
Over the years, members of the group have performed at Hartford's Festival of Lights, in community caroling events throughout Hartford’s South End, on Constitution Plaza as part of Plaza Pizzazz, at the Festival of Trees in the Wadsworth Atheneum, at Hartford Hospital to entertain the patients and at the Travelers Championship in Cromwell. In 2007, the Travelers Choral Club was honored to sing at the Governor’s Residence Holiday Open House in Hartford.
The 100 insurance professionals who comprise the Travelers Chorale love to sing, and our passion for music has found joyful expression in the performance of more than 175 memorable holiday and spring concerts during our 100-year history
Admission to our concerts is always free and open to the public, and there is never a charge for parking. In lieu of performance admission charges, the Chorale traditionally collects nonperishable food items from our audiences for donation to local food banks. Over the years, your overwhelming generosity has yielded tens of thousands of pounds of donations. Our food bank partners report that 40% of the beneficiaries have been Connecticut children.
