Highland Camerata

The Highland Camerata, directed by Michael McGaghie, is a large mixed ensemble open to all students interested in singing at Macalester. Likened to the Renaissance "camerata" which was made up of musicians, poets, intellectuals and humanists, this group reflects the diverse interests and talents represented here on campus. The music of the ensemble will include such styles as classical, folk, and pop. In addition, each year the choir will combine with other Macalester Choirs to perform a major work. Past works have included: Mozart's Requiem, Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms and Vivaldi's Magnificat. Consideration for this group will be based on balance of parts and the ability to match pitch.

The group will meet:

Tuesdays 4:45-6:15 p.m.
Thursdays 6:30-7:30 p.m.
