The Fort Worth Men's Chorus, celebrated its thirteenth anniversary on May 22, 2006. The Chorus was established in 1993 by a group of dedicated individuals wishing to start a legacy of men's choral music in Fort Worth and Tarrant County. The Chorus is comprised of approximately fifteen active singers, a twelve member Board of Directors, and countless volunteers and supporters.

The Fort Worth Men's Chorus has established itself as a major cultural presence in the Fort Worth/Dallas Metroplex. In addition to its annual concert season, the Chorus has performed with Capital City Men's Chorus of Austin, Gay Men's Chorus of Houston, Turtle Creek Chorale, and the Women's Chorus of Dallas. Following a guest appearance in the finale of the 1997 Miss Texas Scholarship Pageant, they were featured as the Ghost Chorus in the 1998 Fort Worth Opera production of "The Flying Dutchman." In July 2000 the Chorus performed in San Jose, CA. as part of GALA Choruses Festival 2000, and in July 2004 the chorus performed in Montreal, Canada as part of Festival VIIe. Locally its performance venues include the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Martin Hall on the campus of Texas Wesleyan University, Ed Landreth Auditorium on the campus of Texas Christian University, the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas, the Nancy Lee and Perry R. Bass Performance Hall, and the Van Cliburn Recital Hall in Fort Worth.
