MUSC 342 - University Chorale

Institution:

Saint Louis University-Main Campus

Subject:

Music

Description:

Study and performance of choral arrangements and masterworks for large mixed ensemble. Open to all students with some choral experience and/or vocal aptitude. Repertoire is chosen from the Renaissance through the Twentieth Century. University Chorale provides an artistic opportunity for singers to be exposed to learn high quality choral music presented in a public concert. With this context, singers will also be taught singing skills to enhance their vocal abilities. All of the primary basics of healthy singing and musicality will be stressed. This includes (1) a deeper understanding and application of breathing skills, (2) understanding and applying motions and movements that underlie both relaxation and released energy, (3) developing mental imagery so that the process of singing takes place internally, (4) learning the correct diction for all languages in the repertoire, and (5) principles of sustained expressive singing.
