A typical rehearsal begins with gentle stretching and vocal warm-ups, and the bulk of rehearsal is spent learning the music that will be performed at the semester-end concert (Fall or Spring).  Rehearsals are weekly and run 1.5 hours long.
​
​A wide variety of music is sung including classical, gospel, Broadway tunes, folk songs and familiar selections from the Great American Songbook .
