Chamber Singers to travel to Turkey
March 4-14, 2010!

The Chamber Singers will travel to Turkey this semester for their sixth international cultural exchange tour. The trip will include shared concerts with university choirs at Middle East Technical, Anadolu, and Bogazici universities, discussions on cultural and political issues with students at those schools as well as Middle East Technical and Koc universities. They are busy learning the Turkish repertoire they will perform with their peers in Turkey and preparing for lecture discussions with several guest speakers on various aspects of Turkish history and culture, including a special visit from ethnomusicologist John Morgan O'Connell from the University of Cardiff, Wales, who is a leading authority on Turkish vocal music and the changes it has undergone since the Kemalist revolution of the 1920's.

Chamber Singers receive rave review
in the Philadelphia Inquirer!
"The Bryn Mawr Haverford Chamber Singers, an image of careful training and firm ensemble, burst out in "Ain't Got Time to Die," soloists taking gospel to expressive heights. Maya Bloom's riff electrified the closing section."
