Northwestern Camerata

Northwestern Camerata is comprised of students from all academic disciplines and skill levels.  This treble ensemble explores choral music of a wide variety of time periods, presenting diverse concert programs of accompanied and a cappella choral music.  The ensemble frequently collaborates with guest instrumentalists and often joins the Combined Choirs for collaborations with the Northwestern University Symphony Orchestra.

This ensemble meets MoWe, 3:30-4:50pm.  Auditions for Northwestern Camerata are held on a rolling basis.  To audition, contact the Office of Choral Organizations at nuchoirs@northwestern.edu.
