Choruser

/ˈkɔːrəsər/ noun

Definition

A member of a chorus; a singer who performs as part of a group rather than as a soloist.

Etymology

From 'chorus' (a group of singers) + '-er' (one who performs the action). This agent noun formation allows us to identify individual members of what is fundamentally a collective group.

Kelly Says

Historically, being a choruser was considered less prestigious than being a soloist, but in opera and musical theater, the ensemble's precision and blended voices create magic that no single voice could achieve—a reminder that collective artistry has its own majesty.
