Getting to know PBC
We are a women's 4-part, a Capella chorus located in North County - San Diego, California. We are an active, industrious, high-spirited and creative group of women from a wide range of backgrounds and ages.

Our music director, Lucy has been singing her entire life, beginning with Sweet Adelines 55 years ago in Chicago. After moving to California, she joined a 90-voice chorus in Oxnard, performing at Carnegie Hall. She later enjoyed a whirlwind two-week tour with 17 performances across England, Scotland, and Wales. Lucy went on to sing with the 148-voice San Diego Chorus before becoming part of The Pacific Belles Chorus, where she began assisting the Music Director — a role that eventually led her to direct the Music Men’s Chorus for seven years. Lucy is an outstanding bass who entertains not only the audience but also the chorus every time she steps onto the stage.

Our mission is to perform and preserve the American art form of women's barbershop-style harmony -- tight, beautiful a capella harmony. We are committed to musical excellence through skill development, competition, performance, education, and youth mentoring. Most of all, we strive to provide an avenue for extraordinary “ordinary” women to do things they have never done before, to develop talents they didn’t know they had, and to bring joy and harmony to the lives of everyone we touch in our community.

We engage in a variety of musical activities throughout our chorus year. We enjoy performing for local community groups and all types of events. We love to perform and produce several shows each year. Typically, these include our annual holiday show, a summer/flag day show, and sometimes a Fall show.
We educate ourselves and others. We hire top coaches for special coaching sessions to help us prepare for competitions, performances, and general skill enhancement. At our annual summer Flag Day show, we present our annual musical scholarship to a deserving local musical student.
We practice Saturday morning. Sent us a message for directions.
