The Choral Union is a large mixed chorus (150-200 voices) designed to bring the campus and community together in a corporate musical effort. Repertoire focuses on the major choral/orchestral works of every stylistic period, which are performed with the Greater Lansing Symphony Orchestra and the University Orchestras. Rehearsals are held on Wednesday evenings. Membership primarily is made up of people from throughout the Greater Lansing metropolitan area, but also includes MSU students. Community members pay a $35/semester participation fee. Students may register as community members or may opt to sign register for regular academic credit (1 semester credit hour). Previous choral singing experience is required.
