AU Chorus
December 4 & 5
The past two years have been very difficult for choral singers. As we return to in-person performances after a year of virtual singing, we found that the thing we were missing most was the feeling of togetherness. To bring us back together, the American University Chorus has adopted a Danish loan-word: hygge. An almost untranslatable concept, “hygge” is a mood of coziness and comfortable conviviality with feelings of wellness and contentment. With that in mind, AU Chorus has put together a program of some of our favorite choral gems to provide some much-needed hygge. It’s our version of snuggling up on a cold winter’s morning with a warm cup of cocoa near the fireplace with a favorite book. Buy tickets for AU Chorus.
