"Singing with the Concordia Choir is meaningful to me because it feels like a family, you know everyone and everyone knows you. We all support and encourage one another and it is a great environment to sing in!"

"Being a transfer and commuter student, meeting people was very difficult my first semester. The first day of choir was like a sigh of relief, being around wonderful people who welcomed me in and shared the love and passion I have for music. I now have lifelong friends and a community in choir and cannot imagine my time at Concordia without it. Having the opportunity to sing 2 days out of my busy school week keeps me sane and is revitalizing to my mind. I'm so thankful for the opportunity to be a part of such a wonderful collegiate choir!"
