Through a wide-ranging repertoire, adjudicated events, and global collaborations, these ensembles help students develop lifelong skills and become thoughtful, creative, and engaged citizens
They enjoy performing a wide-ranging repertoire from Renaissance and Classical works through to contemporary choral music, with performances at major venues and festivals including the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., the Salzburg Choral Festival, and collaborations with leading professional ensembles such as VOCES8.
Under the direction of Luke McGinnis, the choirs have released two professional recordings, achieved consistent top honours at state and national competitions, and appeared at prestigious events across the United States and Europe.
