Vocal Ensembles
Concert Chorale
The SIUE Concert Chorale is the university’s advanced choral ensemble. It performs a wide variety of genres from the Renaissance to the present, and maintains an active and demanding concert schedule, both on and off campus. We focus extensively on advanced techniques of choral singing, as well as harmonic audiation, ensemble intonation, and meaningful storytelling. We explore, prepare and present repertoire that is musically expressive, and indicative of the diversity of the human spirit throughout music history and world cultures.
Choral Union
The SIUE Choral Union is the university’s mixed non-auditioned chorus that welcomes students, faculty, staff, and members of the community. The Union is a vibrant, intergenerational chorus that regularly performs choral repertoire spanning a wide variety of eras and genres. With a focus on inclusivity and accessibility, no audition or prior experience are required to join. We gather and rehearse to build a high caliber ensemble which functions as a team, empowers its members, brings joy to its audiences and reaches out in service to the wider community.
