Vocal Chords A Cappella Ensemble

During the 2008-2009 school year, the Vocal Chords A Cappella Ensemble expanded from the original 4 members (the Tetralogy of Fellows) to an ensemble of over 20 regular members from all 4 classes. The group holds rehearsals on a weekly basis, preparing both winter and spring repertoires. The group has performed several times in University Hospital for patients. The Vocal Chords also holds an annual holiday sing-a-long concert where many faculty and students attend. The ensemble has performed at numerous schoolwide functions including Humanism Day and Follies and has been invited to perform at the White Coat Ceremony, Convocation and Commencement.
