More about the University Chorus |
The Chorus performs traditional concert choir literature,
a cappella and with instrumental accompaniment. The group typically
does one major on-campus program each term, with occasional service
and off-campus concerts. This term (fall) we will be performing Ralph Vaughan Williams' Dona Nobis Pacem, with other smaller pieces TBA.
Chorus auditions consist of vocalizing, pitch matching
and easy sight reading. Non-readers with good pitch retention can
usually get into the group. A prepared piece of music is not needed
for the audition. Interested singers should come to the first rehearsal,
sit in, and sign up for an audition time at the end of the rehearsal.
Singers come from every College on campus (check the program gallery to see the variety of majors in the group).
The Chorus rehearses on Mondays and Wednesdays, from
5:30-7:00 in the Main Auditorium (32nd and Chestnut). The first
fall quarter rehearsal will be Monday, September 21. |
