Description
NEC Concert Choir offers students the opportunity to perform music from all styles and periods of choral literature, extending beyond traditional Western masterpieces to the music of non-European cultures, from Native American chant to works from Asia and the Middle East. Each year the Concert Choir gives several concerts, performing a cappella as well as with orchestra.
NEC Chamber Singers is an auditioned ensemble of 26-32 singers that performs challenging works from all style periods, both a cappella and with instruments. This select choir performs several times a year; on campus in NEC’s famed Jordan Hall, and off campus at various venues in Boston. In recent years the Chamber Singers have performed the works of many NEC faculty and student composers. All students, regardless of major and year, are welcome to audition at the start of the fall semester.
