CORPORATE, MATCHING, IN-KIND, & FOUNDATION SUPPORT
Corporate Support: Your company’s support of Transcendence, the first all-professional chorus of Virginia Beach, will help us continue to meet and broaden our mission of providing musical excellence and vocal artistry that inspires, cultivates, and transforms lives. By presenting these concerts free to the public, your company’s investment will allow us to reach so many who would otherwise not have the opportunity to experience a live professional performance due to their financial and economic constraints. Your generous support will be recognized both on our website and concert programs.
​
Please note that the average cost for one evening performance is $20,000 (approx. $80,000 for the 2026-2027 Concert Season which covers not only the stipend for the singers, but also housing, travel, accompanist, instrumentalists as needed, as well as music purchase, printing costs and more...).
