Mixed Community Chorus

Based in Cheektowaga, NY

The Society was founded in 1899 by Boleslaus Michalski, a Polish immigrant, who served as organist at St. Adalbert's Basilica. It was there that the Society first found a home. The Society soon moved to its own premises located at 1210 Broadway. Subsequently, it purchased property at 18-24 Kosciuszko Street where it was located for over sixty years.

The Society was incorporated as a cultural and educational Society in 1914. The incorporators were Joseph Dulski, father of former Congressman Thaddeus Dulski (also a Chopin member) and Lawrence Nagowski, long-time treasurer of the Society. From that period until 1949 the Society enjoyed growth and a high level of excellence in its choral work. In 1912, the Society won first place as best men's chorus in the International Singers' Alliance Competition. In 1990, the choir won first place as best overall Chorus.
