UCONN FESTIVAL CHORUS– MUSI 1111 sec 9 | Mondays 7:00-9:00pm
This vocal ensemble is a large mixed choir comprised of UConn faculty, staff, and students as well as members of the Greater Storrs Community. The Festival Chorus is under the direction of Dr. Jun Lee and rehearses once per week on Monday evenings – 7:00-9:00pm. This ensemble provides singers with the opportunity to be part of an outstanding community organization and to express themselves through the art of joyous choral singing.
