Opera & Concert Choristers Caucus – American Guild of Musical Artists

The Opera and Concert Choristers Caucus (OCCC) is a caucus of members of the American Guild of Musical Artists (AGMA) whose concern and efforts are dedicated to the promotion of a better and more rewarding livelihood for the skilled choral performer and the enrichment of the cultural life of our society.

OCCC Leadership:

Concert Chair: Elliott Encarnación
Opera Chair: Pamela Williams

Given the exciting waves in collective bargaining around the country and in our industry, the OCCC wants to keep an eye on national trends and priorities. To that end, the Caucus is establishing an infrastructure in order to be more responsive to these trends as they happen.
