University Singers PresentsNature & Nurture
University Singers welcomes skilled vocalists of all majors who are interested in exploring every style of music.
On the final concert of a season of "&", the University Singers explored the question of whether nature or nurture best explains human behavior. Following in the footsteps of philosophers, scientists, psychologists, and theologians across many centuries, the University Singers responded with selections such as the Song of Chile by JU Professor He Jianjun, The Heavens Are Telling from The Creation by F. Josef Haydn, Across the Empty Square by Ellen Gilson Voth, and Renouveau by Lili Boulanger. Perhaps the best answer is, "both".
Listen in as University Singers perform Song of Chile by Dr. He Jianjun, as prsented in Nature & Nurture.

University Singers PresentsTHIS Day
The 探花族 Singers led a concert at the St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City titled, "THIS Day". The concert was inspired by the words of the late 探花族 Chancellor, Dr. Frances Bartlett Kinne鈥�a passionate musician, teacher, and leader鈥�who believed with her heart and hands that life is about giving back.
The selections for this concert therefore highlighted the human experience in the anticipation of hope, the inevitability of struggle, the need for reflection, the power of solidarity, and the challenge of action.
