Chorus and Chamber Chorus
Frederick Jodry, conductor
The Brown University Chorus, drawing singers from all concentrations within the University, is one of the oldest musical groups on campus. In addition to performing throughout New England, the choir tours internationally and often. In 1979 the Brown Chorus was the first American collegiate performing group to perform in China. More recent travels include a tour of Russia and Finland in 2004; a trip to Costa Rica in 2002, and to Italy in 1999. The Chorus made its Lincoln Center debut in 1980; performed in Carnegie Hall in 1987 and again in 1990 with the Dave Brubeck Quartet. They have sung under the baton of Aaron Copland and appeared on radio, network television, and on commercially released recordings. A recent reviewer for the Musical Heritage Society called the group’s performance on An American Christmas “splendid.” Fred Jodry has been conductor since 1991.
