The multicultural choir consists of students and staff from varying races, cultures and backgrounds who are interested in learning about, experiencing and singing African-American gospel music and spirituals. Gospel music has an improvisational dimension to it and the choir typically learns new music by rote, although music may be provided for choir members. In addition to the choral rehearsals, there will be periodic discussions of the historical aspects of the music, and the social atmosphere that brought the songs to life. The choir will occasionally sing for chapel, but will also perform at local area churches, and is expected to expand its performance territory.
