Spring 2026
Hindemith: Apparebit Repentina Dies & Jongen: Mass
Rehearsals start Monday, February 2, at 7:15 in Finney Chapel!
New & Returning Singers: Please fill out this quick form so we have a score ready for you. If you are new, or haven't sung with MU in a while, I'll reach out to set up a time for a voice placement with you.
For the voice placement, I'll ask you to:
Sing some vocalises (vocal warmups) so I can get a sense of the range and timbre of your voice
Sing back some patterns I play at the piano (short 4-6 note melodies)
Registration: Students who would like to take Musical Union for credit should register for APST 700.
