Welcome to Chicago Master Singers University (CMS University)!
As we are currently unable to share the choral music we love in rehearsals and performances, we still wish to stay connected with our members, patrons, and other classical music lovers.
CMS University is a series of livestreamed seminars offered by Chicago Master Singers and hosted by our Music Director, Dr. John Hughes. Topics will be of interest to veteran CMS patrons, as well as those who are just discovering the organization. And there is no cost to register and attend these sessions!
The livestream events will be held on Monday evenings at 7:00 pm Central, starting on August 24 (note the one exception - see the full schedule below). You can sign up for any or all of these sessions. Once you register, you will receive an email with information on how to join the livestream a few days prior to the dates of the event(s) for which you've registered.
We hope you'll join us!
As mentioned, these events are free, but you can support our work with a one-time donation or a monthly contribution via Patreon. Thank you!
