Arizona Women's Chorus

Mission: AWC fosters a harmonious, diverse, and inclusive community for adult treble singers by providing a supportive platform for expression, education, personal growth, and meaningful connections. Through artistic excellence, our varied repertoire enriches those we touch with the beauty and unity of our voices.

As the premier women's chorus of Tucson, AWC strives to sing quality music that showcases our voices and desire to entertain. We perform from the ever-expanding and highly varied repertoire written specifically for women's or treble voices. Our performances have included music such as the Baroque Missa de Profunctis, Broadway medleys, Spanish folksongs, jazzy sambas, and more. We have commissioned new choral pieces for women's voices by David Childs, Brant Adams, Khris Dodge, Sheena Phillips, Robert Cohen, and Mark Hayes.

AWC has been directed by Terrie Ashbaugh since 1998. She was nominated for the 2008 Governor's Arts Award, and received a letter of recognition from the Mayor of Tucson in 2009, bolstering her reputation as an outstanding choral director in the Southwest and beyond.

That was a smashing concert, so lively and energetic. I was amazed that you all memorized all those songs, impressive. Thanks so much for the fun afternoon.

It was the best AZ Women's Chorus concert I've been to. You looked like you were all having so much fun. The music was perfect for your voices, and the blend of parts was so good!!

We thoroughly enjoyed your Arizona Women's Chorus concert, "Goin' Retro." We didn't really know what to expect, but we were so glad that we decided to attend.
