“This was a wonderful experience, socially and musically! It gave me a place to learn new songs and sing with like-minded people in a setting that was warm and welcoming. A perfect way to spend Monday nights.”

Let’s Sing Together

More than anything, our top goal which we succeed at every single week, is having a lovely time singing together. Here are a few informal recordings for you to get a sense of what we do together each week.

Join the Riverside Community Singers Interest List

Singing for joy, community, and connection — by the river and from the heart.

Our community choir gathers weekly from September through May to lift our voices together in song. We sing folk and traditional tunes, simple harmonies, and songs that speak to the soul — all taught in the oral tradition, with no sheet music and no auditions. Just come as you are, and sing.

If you'd like to be the first to know when registration opens for the Fall 2025 season, drop your name and email here. We’ll send you a friendly reminder when it’s time to sign up!

All voices are welcome. Beginners too.
Because singing together is for everyone.

  • Sing for the joy of singing – no auditions, just fun, relaxed rehearsals with a focus on enjoying singing in community.

  • Just bring your enthusiasm. All songs are taught by ear.

  • It’s OK to miss a few sessions - we all have busy lives. If you miss a session or three, no worries. Come when you can and we’ll be glad to see you.

  • Feel connected to others who share your love of song and want the positive experience of singing with a group. Build friendships with people of all ages and backgrounds, united by the joy of making music together.

  • No pressure, just pleasure – we sing for the love of it, not for performance. Any performance opportunities we are offered will be volunteer only.

  • For ages 9 and up; children must come with a singing adult.

Riverside Singers at the Leo Coffeehouse

Walk on Home – Live at the Leo Coffeehouse | March 2025

A few lovely volunteer members of the Riverside Community Singers joined April on stage for this heartfelt performance of her original song, Walk on Home, at the Leo Coffeehouse in Cincinnati.

It was a beautiful evening of music and community — thank you to the amazing audience and to everyone who sings with us by the river.

I enjoyed learning truly beautiful songs that stir the heart. Gathering with lovely people, and raising our voices together! ✨

Having sung in choirs as a kids and into high school, I really enjoyed this as an adult. It really exercised my brain to learn new songs and melodies. I love singing with other people.

Choir is a beautiful way to connect with others on such a heart level, without needing to do anything other than raise your voice in song. It is so cathartic and soul nourishing. A beautiful way to begin the week, and something to look forward to!
