Welcome to Ulysses Chamber Choir's website

So who are Ulysses?

Ulysses Chamber Choir (Dublin) is a four-part 25 strong chamber choir, founded in 1992. The choir has, over the years, developed a wide and challenging repertoire, which is constantly being expanded.

Ulysses presented six performances during the 2004 - 2005 season, and we plan to build on that.

Rehearsals are held in Dublin's city centre. Over the last 13 years, in addition to an Irish membership, the choir has attracted a variety of nationalities from all corners of the globe. The main requirement for membership is an interest in making good music.

When and Where:

The choir currently rehearses each Tuesday evening from 6.15 pm to 8.30 pm in No. 8 Ely Place, just off Dublin's St. Stephen's Green.
