University Singers, our large ensemble, is open to everyone regardless or major or experience level in vocal music - no audition required!
Come and make music in an inclusive, fun environment with your friends while building your musicianship and learning some of the best choral repertoire written today. The Choral Program prioritizes music by living composers, and honors the diverse voices and experiences of its members through music.
In the past, choirs at the Mount have collaborated with the tri-state area's major choruses such as MUSE, the Cincinnati Men's Chorus, and the Cincinnati Young Professionals Choral Collective. Chamber Singers worked with the Theatre Program on a premier work (The Spoon River Requiem) in 2021. Choirs may also support the bi-annual musicals that take place on campus.
Chamber Singers
Chamber Singers is an audition-only ensemble comprised of members from University Singers who wish to tackle music making at a higher level, concentrated development of advanced musicianship, and to participate in more performance experiences as ambassadors for the Mount. This ensemble may perform early music or vocal jazz in addition to challenging modern compositions.
All majors are welcome in this ensemble!
