Welcome!

Peninsula Threshold Choir brings comfort and kindness through song to the bedsides of those at thresholds of living and dying. Ours was one of the first chapters started by the founder of Threshold Choir, Kate Munger. We have been part of the Peninsula community since 2001.

WHERE WE SING: In addition to singing for those whose loved ones contact us directly, we sing regularly for clients of the Palo Alto Veterans Administration hospice, the Menlo Park Division of the Veterans Administration, Mission Hospice and Home Care, Odyssey Hospice, and Pathways Home Help and Hospice. We serve clients in Palo Alto, Menlo Park, Redwood City, Belmont, San Mateo, Los Altos, Cupertino, and the surrounding areas in this part of California. Hospitals we have visited include Stanford Hospital, Sequoia Hospital, El Camino Hospital, Kaiser Santa Clara, Kaiser Redwood City, and Good Samaritan Hospital.

PERFORMANCES: Threshold Choir rarely offers public performances, but we are honored to be included as a part of Compline in Memorial Church on the Stanford University campus once or twice a year. Singing at Compline brings together members of many Bay Area Threshold Choir chapters, singing under the direction of Kate Munger. Audience members often find it a transcendent experience because of the remarkable acoustics and the way our music helps to complete the spiritual transition from day into night and darkness.

REHEARSALS: We join with the South Bay Threshold Choir in our rehearsals. We rehearse on the second and fourth Wednesday nights of the month near Palo Alto and on the first and third Tuesday nights in Cupertino.  We welcome new members.

CONTACT US: If you would like to request singers or visit a rehearsal, please contact us by email or call us at (650) 646-5782.
