Song Database

Welcome to GALA Choruses’ Song Database!

There are many excellent choral databases on the web, so this catalog focuses specifically on 

  • repertoire that is LGBTQ+ identified by theme, composer, or lyrics
  • songs that fit the mission of GALA choruses
  • queer-focused Commissions
  • standard LGBTQ repertoire for newer choruses
  • “Street songs” for LGBTQ community engagement gigs

We welcome your feedback on ways to make this new database even more user friendly, or to suggest repertoire.
