University Men's Chorus
Dr. Justin Smith , director
The Moores School University Men's Chorus draws its membership from many different disciplines and departments across the University, including both music and non-music majors, and is open to all University of Houston undergraduate and graduate students, staff, faculty, and spouses.
The University Men's Chorus offers members the opportunity to learn vocal and ensemble techniques while preparing a wide variety of literature for men's voices. Their varied performance schedule includes traditional choral concerts, National Anthem singing at UH and professional sporting events, a
holiday concert, and the annual Oratorio Concert in conjunction with the Moores School Symphony Orchestra and combined choral ensembles. Recent and upcoming performances include Verdi's Requiem with the Victoria Symphony, Beethoven's Symphony No. 9 ("Choral"), Mahler's Symphony No. 2 ("Resurrection"), Mendelssohn's Elijah, Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms, and invited performances with the Houston Tidelanders and for the Bay Area Chorus. The University Men's Chorus also features a small auditioned ensemble called Bob's Your Uncle that focuses on lighter repertoire.
