The Department of Music presents the Camerata Chamber Choir under the direction of Stephen Caracciolo. A select choir of 40–50 singers drawn from all majors of the university, Camerata performs a wide variety of works drawn from the expansive choral repertoire, including Renaissance motets, folksongs, choral-orchestral works, German part songs, Russian sacred liturgies, American spirituals, and new works. In previous seasons Camerata has accepted invitations to perform with conductor-composer John Rutter at Carnegie Hall and has provided entertainment for guests touring the White House during the holiday season.
