​Cal State LA is proud to offer a variety of choral ensembles for aspiring professional musicians. Conducted by Dr. Gukhui Han, these ensembles exhibit a high level of performance excellence. Each ensemble performs concerts both on and off campus, providing students with wide exposure to, and performance of, standard and contemporary choral literature. Our choir program participates in many educational outreach initiatives, offering choir students opportunities to attend rehearsals and concerts by prestigious organizations such as the LA Opera, Los Angeles Master Chorale, and Pacific Chorale.

We encourage students to commit to at least one academic year to enhance their musicianship, expand their repertoire, and engage in various activities to enrich their experience.
