The Rainbow Chorale of Delaware is an inclusive, non-profit community chorus that provides LGBTQ+ individuals, with their friends and allies, the opportunity to perform high-quality choral music in an affirming environment that serves as a positive force for change. In addition, the Rainbow Chorale supports other institutions and individuals who serve that community.
Love of music is common to everyone. When we sing, we hope to impart the ideals, hopes, dreams, and aspirations of our community. Our goal is that with our listening audience we will strike a chord of commonality, and bridge the differences of our life experiences.

Mark your calendars for Saturday April 1 2023 7:30pm, for the RCD Showcase Ages and Stages! It’s no joke – we will again be presenting one of our popular cabaret style shows with individual acts and group numbers at UUSMC, 579 Polly Drummond Hill Rd, Newark DE. This Showcase explores the similarities and differences of life experiences of different generations with music evocative of the the ages and stages our members have gone through.
Table and GA tickets will go on sale soon; there will also be a live-stream option for those who cannot attend in person. UUSMC is an accessible venue with ample parking.
We rehearse at the Presbyterian Church of the Covenant (PCOC), 503 Duncan Rd, Wilmington, DE 19809. We are very grateful to PCOC for hosting us!
The Rainbow Chorale is fully committed to live rehearsing and performance in a safe manner. These are the protocols we have decided on:
We are happy to say that the Rainbow Chorale was able to perform our “Everything Old is New Again” holiday concert on Friday January 6th 2023, 7:30pm, at the Presbyterian Church of the Covenant (PCOC), 503 Duncan Rd, Wilmington, DE 19809. This fun seasonal concert paired new and old versions of holiday favorites, included gorgeous stand alone pieces such as O Magnum Mysterium and Glow, and, on the lighter side, the always entertaining Caffeine Overload Polka.
This was a FREE performance but donations to help defray our costs are very welcome. You can donate here to help.
We also live-streamed the concert for those who could not attend in person. Click HERE to access a recording of the live-stream. You can download the program here.
Many thanks to those who gave during Giving Tuesday 2022! If you didn’t get to it during Giving Tuesday, it is not too late to support the Rainbow Chorale by donating here. Your donation will help us continue our mission of “Eliciting Change Through Music” and provide funding for music, concerts, our trip to the GALA Festival in 2024, and much more. Thank you!
