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 (spring) we will be performing Bernstein's "Chichester Psalms" and several polychoral works in our fifth annual Great Court Concert.

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. Most of the singers are not music majors.

The Chorus rehearses on Mondays and Wednesdays, from 5:30-7:00 in the Main Auditorium (32nd and Chestnut). The first spring quarter rehearsal will be Monday, March 31.
