Yale Camerata is a choral ensemble of approximately 80 singers, with a special commitment to diverse choral music. The choir is conducted by Dr. Felicia Barber. Rehearsals are on Tuesdays from 7:30-10 p.m. and there is a required dress rehearsal (in addition to regular rehearsal) the week of each performance. Course credit is available to graduate students.
Singers are invited to prepare a short solo song or aria (accompanist provided) and will be led through a few simple vocal exercises demonstrating range and musicianship skills.
