This scholarship ensemble rehearses every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and participates in Chapel services throughout the year. Members of Chapel Choir come from all academic disciplines across campus and have a wide range of experience singing in choirs. What each member shares in common is a love of singing and a desire to sing music to the glory of God at a high level of artistic expression. For members seeking to gain experience leading in church music, opportunities exist for planning, researching, rehearsing, conducting, and implementing worship services under the guidance of the director. To be selected for this ensemble, auditions are held in the fall and spring of each year. All members may receive academic credit (register for MUS 1320 for 1 credit hour). Required rehearsals are Mondays, 3:25-4:35 p.m., and participation in weekly chapel services is required.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in scheduling an audition, contact:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Dr. Carol Earnhardt at <a href=\"mailto:cearnhar@highpoint.edu\">cearnhar@highpoint.edu<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6097 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/religiouslife\/files\/2023\/11\/330793608_916757923098534_2981456862832531838_n-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"330793608 916757923098534 2981456862832531838 n\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/religiouslife\/files\/2023\/11\/330793608_916757923098534_2981456862832531838_n-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/religiouslife\/files\/2023\/11\/330793608_916757923098534_2981456862832531838_n-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/religiouslife\/files\/2023\/11\/330793608_916757923098534_2981456862832531838_n-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/religiouslife\/files\/2023\/11\/330793608_916757923098534_2981456862832531838_n-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/religiouslife\/files\/2023\/11\/330793608_916757923098534_2981456862832531838_n-1689x950.jpg 1689w, https:\/\/www.highpoint.edu\/religiouslife\/files\/2023\/11\/330793608_916757923098534_2981456862832531838_n.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Genesis Gospel Choir<\/h4>\n<p>Genesis Gospel Choir is a student-run gospel choir.
