Constellation Chor* | an immersion in voice, movement, and spirit is a vocal performance collective founded and directed by Marisa Michelson. We are essence-seekers.

We express through two primary performance branches –  our improvisation branch and our slightly-more-traditional composition branch.  

At the center of both of these branches is our improvisation practice based on a set of principles called Core Sounding. Our aesthetic itself arises from these principles.  

We are singers, composers, and dancers.  We are committed to developing our practice together over a long period of time. 

We honor sacred group consciousness. We honor the sacred individual. 

We practice moving and voicing our way in and out of each other’s orbit.

*Chor from the Latin Cor meaning: heart, soul, mind; and the Greek Khoros meaning: to dance in a circle…

~chor is also meant to evoke the core, the center and the essence~

                            Chor is inside of“chorus” and “choreography.”  The gestures and impulses we are working with might become voice or they might become movement.
