UGA Choral Project presents Vida, a concert celebrating life and living with music from composers like Stephen Paulus and Ysaÿe Barnwell. Paulus wrote over 400 works for chorus and was a recipient of both NEA and Guggenheim Fellowships. Barnwell was a member of the African American a cappella ensemble “Sweet Honey in the Rock” from 1979 to 2013 for which she arranged a considerable amount of music.

Repertory Singers

The UGA Contemporary Chamber Ensemble (CCE) and the UGA Choral Project will combine forces to present Awakening, a concert featuring exciting new works for voices and instruments by living composers. Conducted by Sarah Frook Gallo and Brandon Quarles, the ensembles will perform a vibrant evening of 21st-century music.

The Repertory Singers is a mixed chamber choir directed by graduate student conductors. Its format offers laboratory rehearsal and performance experience for conductors and singers alike. The ensemble is designed to appeal to students who wish to be part of an ongoing conducting masterclass environment. This group provides students with the opportunity to build knowledge and skill in the areas of sightreading, conducting gesture, rehearsal techniques, and choral repertoire. The Repertory Singers concerts are free. No tickets are required.
