The new All-College Choir will provide yet another opportunity for Drexel students to participate in the performing arts. The choir, class Music  101, section- 001, is a new, non-auditioned, mixed voice ensemble that sings choral repertoire of many styles, genres and eras, including classical, jazz, spirituals, American Musical Theater, folk and pop.  The ensemble is open to all Drexel University students and may be taken for credit or non credit. The All-College Choir meets fall, winter, and spring terms with rehearsal times on Monday and Wednesday from 3 PM – 4:20 PM.  For additional information, contact Mr. Scott Bacon, director, at sdb33@drexel.edu or (215) 895-4915.

The choir will be led by Scott Bacon, Assistant Teaching Professor in Music.
