Section Description

THIS IS THE SECTION TO ENROLL IN IF YOU ARE *NOT* GOING TO CARNEGIE HALL. The University Concert Choir is a large mixed chorus open to all comers that sings repertory from throughout the history of choral music, including major works of the European and American traditions, choral arrangements of songs and music from many lands and cultures, and newly composed works by composers from all around the world, and especially Vermont. We rehearse weekly and perform at least one full concert every term ... sometimes more.

Section Expectation

THIS IS THE SECTION TO ENROLL IN IF YOU ARE *NOT* GOING TO CARNEGIE HALL. This is a performing ensemble. Our meetings are rehearsals in which everyone is expected to participate fully (unless they are sick). A significant amount of time is spent standing by those for whom standing is comfortable. And concerts call for specified concert dress. Some time should be spent outside rehearsal working on learning the music and words. There are typically no required materials, but singers should always bring a pencil to rehearsal. In addition to scheduled rehearsals, there are a number of extra meetings, including dress rehearsals and performances. Some travel to and from off-campus concert venues is often also necessary.

Evaluation

Grades are based attendance, engagement, and performance on a parts test.
