Back to the main story |
Founded in 1837, the 140-voice Oberlin Musical Union is the second-oldest
continuing choral tradition in the United States. (Only Bostons Handel
and Haydn Society, founded in 1815, represents a longer ongoing tradition.)
This group performs the great works for chorus and orchestra. Recent presentations
include Haydns Creation, Ravels Daphnis et Chloé,
Brahms Ein deutsches Requiem, Verdis Requiem Mass,
Poulencs Gloria, and Beethovens Missa Solemnes.
Assistant Professor of Choral Conducting Hugh Floyd prepared the Musical Union for Mahlers Resurrection. |
