Richmond Allied Voices

Richmond Allied Voices is a 501-C3 based in the Richmond, Virginia area. Formerly known as Monument City Music, RAV was first born when Tim Gillham gathered a group of men in April of 2001 to discuss the possibility of a men’s chorus. The Richmond Men’s Chorus (RMC) had auditions over the summer months and began their first rehearsal with over 30 members on September 10, 2001. After an extremely successful debut concert, the group joined the Hampton Roads Men’s Chorus for a statewide tour in the spring, followed by a solo concert in the summer and a guest appearance with the Richmond Pops Band. As the organization grew we formed the Richmond Women’s Chorus in 2010, now named the RAV Treble Chorus. This ensemble features over 30 singers and has performed all over the central Virginia region and also at the Denver GALA Chorus Festival of 2012.
