The Choral Area of the School of Music pursues two parallel missions: performing beautiful choral music and mentoring tomorrow’s choral leaders.
Concerts by the University’s vocal ensembles demonstrate the highest level of artistry and professionalism, in an unusually diverse range of repertoire from Gregorian chant to commissions of new works. Our choirs regularly appear at regional and national choral conventions, tour nationally and internationally, and frequently collaborate with the University of Illinois Symphony Orchestra, Champaign-Urbana Symphony Orchestra, and Sinfonia da Camera, and in staged productions with the Lyric Theatre of Illinois.
