The Chamber Choir is the premier mixed voice ensemble at Goshen College. The auditioned group of 24-

or Voices of the Earth, our tenor/bass and treble choirs, respectively. The Chamber Choir performs concerts
both on and off campus during the school year and represents the college on periodic tours. The Chamber
Choir has sung on National Public Radio, and has appeared in concert with Bobby McFerrin, Njål Sparbo,
and basso profundo Glenn Miller. They are frequent collaborators with Camerata Singers, an Elkhart
County-based professional choir.
