About Summer Sing

Summer Sing is a fun evening of music making that requires no auditions and no rehearsals.  It's also a wonderful way to experience great choral literature in a low-pressure and low-commitment setting—or for experienced choral singers to keep their chops up during the summer months.

Registration begins at 6:30 p.m. in the Recital Hall of the Dalton Center with a suggested donation of $5.  Bring a friend and a score—or scores are available to rent for an additional $5.  The singing begins at 7 p.m. with a brief warm-up and rehearsal, followed by a short break. A full sing-through performance of the entire piece begins at 7:45 p.m.

Proceeds from these events directly benefit WMU students as they raise funds for an international tour in 2017. 

For more information, or if you are unable to attend either event but would like to contribute or be notified of future concerts and events, please contact Kimberly Dunn Adams at wmich.edu/choralstudies.
