As part of Clatsop Community College Arts & Ideas program, the chorale mentors young singers, performs two annual concerts and presents fall sing-alongs to benefit local food banks. The NCC also participates in the Astoria Music Festival and sang at the 2010 Leavenworth Choral Festival.
Dr. Denise Reed has been the Music Director since 2006. Under her direction, concerts often have a multi-cultural focus.
