SIUE C H O I R S
We cover a wide variety of styles from Renaissance to Broadway to Spirituals. In addition to Fall and Spring concerts, CCS prepares major works for performance with the SIUE orchestra. Recent past works include Mendelssohn's Elijah, Bach's Cantata 140 Wachet auf, and Brahm's Nänie.

As always, I want to encourage you to seek out singers from your church, friends and neighbors, and invite them to join a choir (especially men!). Singing is too fun to keep to ourselves. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at home (618-520-7064).

Fall 2001 will be the first year for this ensemble, made possible by a grant from SIUE's Excellence in Undergraduate Education Program. The grant includes money to purchase costumes, sets, props, and music for the preparation and performance of the annual Renaissance Madrigal Dinner.
The grant also includes partial funding for a trip to the Kansas
City
Renaissance Festival early in the fall semester. The grant
requires
that each student pay $50.00 towards the cost of. transportation,
hotel,
and entrance to the Ren Fest.
