The Grass Valley Male Voice Choir has its roots in Cornwall with the Male Voice Choir tradition going back as far as anyone can remember. Cornwall Cornish miners came to Grass Valley during the Gold Rush of 1849 when their skills in hard rock mining were needed to extract gold from the earth. With them came their rich tradition of singing. An all male voice choir sang in Grass Valley for over 90 years. As gold mining faded in Grass Valley so did the male voice choir. Thanks to her passion and love of these traditions Eleanor Kenitzer founded the Cornish Carol Choir in 1990 and then gave life to the current Grass Valley Male Voice Choir in 1997. The male voice choir toured Cornwall in 2000 and 2002.
