Laurentian Singers
A select chamber choir of undergraduate student singers, the Laurentians continue a 78-year legacy of choral excellence, performing regularly throughout the year on campus, in the North Country, and nationally or internationally on tour during spring break each year. Their far-ranging repertoire is drawn from the entire span of classical traditions as well as world and popular idioms.
The Laurentian Singers typically perform for high-profile events on campus including Matriculation, Convocation, and Commencement. In Spring 2024, the ensemble will hold its Winter Retreat on February 3; tour North & South Carolina during spring break; perform a pre-tour concert on Sunday, March 10; and present a spring concert in collaboration with the St. Lawrence Choral Society on Saturday, April 20.

In your audition, you’ll be led through a series of exercises to assess your vocal range.
