Welcome to the choral and vocal music website!
The choral and vocal music experiences at Carleton College are diverse and comprehensive, ranging from classical to cultural, traditional to experimental, and intimate to grandiose. Students in the choral ensembles and in applied voice have many opportunities to perform in concerts, recitals and guest artist master classes and workshops throughout the academic year.
