Biola University Chorale sings twice on Easter Monday in Germany

The Biola University Chorale

Easter Monday, April 9 is a busy day for the Biola University Chorale under the direction of Mrs. Shawna Stewart. The singers from La Mirada, California will first be the featured guest choir for the holiday service at the historical Ordenskirche in Bayreuth, then at 7:30 pm, they present a formal concert at the stunning Lutherkiche in Apolda.
The Biola University Chorale is comprised of 34 voices from various disciplines on campus, with nearly eighty percent being voice majors. Dedicated to excellence in performance and literature, the Chorale offers a varied repertoire from traditional choral works to contemporary genres such as jazz and gospel.
The Chorale tours domestically each year and internationally every four years. In Southern California, the Chorale annually participates in prestigious area festivals, as well as hosts a two-day invitational high school, community and Christian college choral festival every November. Each spring they join forces with the Biola Symphony Orchestra for the performance of a major choral-orchestral work. In addition to a yearly season of many Biola-related concerts, the Chorale also performs at notable area churches.
