About Us
Founded by Alexander J. Amato, Amatones is a community music organization dedicated to uniting local musicians of all ages. We provide a fun, supportive, and creative space where artists can explore their passions, develop technical skills, and build meaningful connections.
Our mission is to enrich the cultural vitality of DuPage County by providing accessible musical experiences that empower young performers to discover their unique artistic voices. Through choral, instrumental, and community programming, we foster lifelong musicianship, creativity, and the confidence to perform with excellence. We believe that music is a powerful, unifying force that fosters community and self-discovery.
Building on the success of our inaugural programs, Amatones is expanding to offer high-quality, affordable opportunities in choral music, instrumental performance, and educational workshops. Whether you are picking up a ukulele for the first time, joining our summer choir, or performing in our signature concert series, Amatones is the perfect place to grow. Join us to embark on a journey of personal growth, character-building, and artistic exploration.
