The UMS Choral Union invites you to take part in the return of Summer Sings. Just come as you are to this no-audition, no-performance evening of memorable music-making!

As many as 250 singers from southeastern Michigan, northern Ohio, and Canada have joined each session in singing through great choral repertoire with some of the nation’s most respected choral conductors and outstanding soloists.

This year, Summer Sings returns to join the community together over a rhythmic masterpiece, Carmina Burana.

You probably know the first five chords of Carl Orff’s legendary Carmina Burana as you’ve likely heard these notes in many forms of popular entertainment, though you may not have heard the story of what inspired them: the scandalous writings of some mischievous monks and a revolutionary composer who turned those musings into music.

UMS’s Choral Union Music Director and Conductor Scott Hanoian prepares the Grammy Award-winning chorus in performances with the world’s finest orchestras and conductors and will help direct the evening of community engagement. Portions of the score will be rehearsed during the first half, followed by a break for refreshments, and then singers re-convene to sing through the entire work.

Please arrive early at 6:30 pm for registration.
