Laurentian Singers

Laurentian Singers

A select chamber choir of undergraduate student singers, the Laurentians continue a 79-year legacy of choral excellence, performing regularly throughout the year on campus, in the North Country, and nationally or internationally on tour during spring break each year. Their far-ranging repertoire is drawn from the entire span of classical traditions as well as world and popular idioms.

The Laurentian Singers typically perform for high-profile events on campus including Matriculation, Convocation, and Commencement. In Fall 2024, the ensemble will perform during Laurentian Weekend and will present a seasonal concert in December; they will also be part of the annual Candlelight service.
