Northwestern College Choir

About the College Choir
Conducted by Timothy Sawyer, the Northwestern College Choir is among the leading college choirs in the United States, a competitively select ensemble of 70-80 upper-class men and women. The choir performs primarily sacred a cappella music of all style periods and occasionally presents major choral-orchestral works with the NWC Orchestra.

Devoted to the highest level of choral performance, the Northwestern College Choir's motto: "Choral music direct from the heart" binds together singers seeking to sing from the heart, and to glorify God in every aspect of their music and life together in Christian community, doing it all in the name of Jesus Christ. Our mission is to Light the Way - to bring the light of Christ and God-honoring, dynamic choral music everywhere we can, including places where few collegiate choirs have gone before, as well as to the places where great choral music is heard regularly.

The choir tours annually throughout the United States, and every fourth year, overseas. In the spring of 2006, the choir toured Eastern Europe. On campus, the College Choir performs in the fall homecoming Showcase of Talent, Christmas at Northwestern, the Spring Music Festival and annual commencement ceremonies, as well as for sacred services and noted fine arts series throughout the Midwest.
