History
The Golden Concert Choir was originally formed as the Golden Chamber Choir in October 2000. It was incorporated in 2002. The director was Carma Romano-LaMorte.

The Children's Choir of Golden was added in 2002, created and directed by Allison Olsson.

In the spring of 2003, the adult choir was becoming too large to remain a chamber choir. The name was officially changed to Golden Concert Choir to more accurately reflect the choir size and type of pieces being performed. With the resignation of Romano-LaMorte in 2006, Allison Olsson was named Interim Director. Since 2007, David Bell has been the Concert Choir Director.

In September 2003 the Golden Chamber Choir was granted 501(c)(3) status. In the fall of 2004, the Golden Community Choirs organization was registered.

Confluence was added in 2007, as a small auditioned a cappella group created and directed by Allison Olsson.

The Children’s Choir and the Training Choir were suspended in 2009.

In June 2010 Confluence decided to become an independent organization, no longer part of the Golden Community Choirs.

The Children's Choir of Golden was reinstated with new director Judy Tisch in September, 2010.

All Golden Community Choirs are based in Golden, Colorado.
