The Greater Dallas Choral Society (GDCS) proudly carries forward the legacy of its predecessor, the Children’s Chorus of Greater Dallas, which was established in 1997. GDCS remains committed to the 25- year-old mission of providing children and youth with an experience in choral artistry in a group that reflects the diversity of greater Dallas. A nationally recognized organization, GDCS proudly serves as the official children’s chorus of The Dallas Opera. GDCS’s seven choral ensembles serve nearly 350 children and teens in grades four through twelve, drawn from 33 communities within a 35-mile radius of downtown Dallas. Approximately 3,000 patrons annually attend GDCS’s season concerts.

The 2024–2025 season boasts performances at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center and the Margot and Bill Winspear Opera House, an appearance at the national convention of the American Choral Directors Association, and collaborations with The Dallas Opera, Greater Dallas Youth Orchestra, and the Dallas Winds. GDCS is a tuition-based organization of choruses that rehearse on Monday nights during the school year. Tuition assistance is available for singers based on financial need.
