Choral Ensembles at GVSU


Grand Valley State University has a proud tradition of excellence and leadership in choral music in Michigan and across the United States. Choral ensembles at GVSU perform the finest in choral literature spanning various musical periods and a range of musical styles.

Ensembles are open to students from all majors and are selected by audition. Placement in ensembles is made according to level of experience and interest. Typically, singers are expected to make a year-long commitment to ensembles and many participate for several years and in multiple ensembles. Participation in a choral ensemble earns one academic credit each semester.

We invite you to learn more about the choral program, our upcoming activities and each of our ensembles by exploring this website. We enthusiastically invite you to join us! For more information on choral studies, please email Dr. Chuck Norris at [email protected].
