If you like to sing and want to meet new people who share your passion, the Bossa Nova Chorale is looking for you!
The Bossa Nova Chorale is the premier vocal ensemble of the Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences Division of Performing and Visual Arts. It’s composed of talented, aspiring vocalists who sing a wide repertoire of songs—from spirituals, world music, and vocal jazz charts to choral music spanning the last millennium. Opportunities to shine as a soloist are available as well.
Membership in the Bossa Nova Chorale is open each semester to all NSU students (undergraduate and graduate), as well as faculty and staff members. Becoming a part of the chorale is a great way to meet new people, learn new music, and develop your musical skills. Undergraduate students participating in the chorale can earn 1 academic credit (pass or fail) by signing up for MUSC 3301, section DA1—Ensemble. Participants are not required to enroll for course credit. Chorale performances are scheduled throughout the academic year.
Rehearsals will be held Tuesdays and Thursdays during the winter 2012 semester, from 4:00 to 5:45 p.m., in the college’s Performing and Visual Arts Wing of the Don Taft University Center, room 309.
For more information or to become a member of the Bossa Nova Chorale, contact the ensemble’s director, Jennifer Donelson, D.M.A., assistant professor in the college. The deadline to sign up for the winter 2012 semester is Tuesday, Jan. 24.
