chamber choir
Small singing group
A chamber choir is a small vocal ensemble, typically between twelve and forty singers, performing choral music with one or a few voices per part rather than the massed sections of a full chorus.
The intimate size allows for precise blend and nuanced interpretation, particularly suited to Renaissance polyphony, madrigals, and contemporary art music.
The chamber choir rehearses in the chapel on Thursdays.
