The Choral Union is a large mixed chorus of 125 to 150 voices designed to bring the campus and community together.
Members include MSU students and individuals from the Greater Lansing area. Although previous choral singing is desirable, it is not required.
Repertoire focuses on the major choral/orchestral works of every stylistic period, which are performed with the Lansing Symphony Orchestra and university orchestras.
