About Us

Our Story Since 1929

The First-Kleiner Columbus Swiss Singers were founded in 1929 by Swiss immigrants Robert First and Fritz Kleiner who sought to preserve their cultural heritage through song.

For over nine decades, we have been a vibrant part of the Central Ohio cultural scene, performing traditional Swiss folk music, harmonies, and yodeling at festivals, community events, and celebrations.

We are proud members of the North American Swiss Singing Alliance (NASSA) and regularly participate in national competitions, consistently earning high honors for our musical excellence.
