Composition

The De La Salle Zobel Chorale is composed of students of De La Salle Zobel who have passed the auditions and are members of either the Club or joined the school's Special Music program. These students are given the opportunity to develop their singing talents through individual and group choral activities. The Chorale is composed of two groups, composed of Grade School and High School students.
Musical concepts, such as melody, rhythm, form, tempo, and dynamics are integrated into the group's repertoire, which includes songs ranging from the sacred to the contemporary and pop. The repertoire features songs usually in Latin, English, and Filipino.
The group performs annually during the Angelo King Center's Performing Arts Festival that are held on February. The current principal conductors is Michael Kenneth Fabian since 2023.
