Who is ECU?

Elgin Choral Union (ECU), under the direction of Andrew Lewis, is the oldest performing arts organization in the Fox Valley. At 100 plus voices and growing, the organization of non-professional singers work closely with other performing arts groups in the area.

In residence at Elgin Community College, ECU performs regularly at the Visual and Performing Arts Center's Blizzard Theatre as well as other locations throughout the Fox River Valley. The chorus has distinguished itself by its ambitious programming, performance of master choral works, contemporary composition and commissioning several world premieres.
