Last year\u2019s tour destinations for the CMU Singers included Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta.  <\/p>\n<p>Conductor of the CMU Singers is Dr. Janet Brenneman, CMU Assistant Professor of Music. Also travelling with the tour as a guest speaker for congregations is CMU\u2019s Dr. Dan Epp-Tiessen, Associate Professor of Bible.  <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year-end tour is a wonderful way for our students to finish off another year of hard work, and to share their efforts with the broader community,\u201d says Brenneman. \u201cWe appreciate this special commitment that our students make to share their music with our church families in other regions. The tour provides a chance for choral music lovers to participate in worship concerts put on by our exceptional choir ensembles.\u201d      <\/p>\n<p>The CMU Choirs are auditioned, mixed ensembles whose members demonstrate high calibre talent and strong vocal proficiency. Each year, CMU choirs study and perform a challenging body of choral repertoire chosen from a variety of genres and styles, providing opportunity for advanced students to strengthen and increase their musicianship. The groups perform regularly in concert and in worship throughout Manitoba, and embark on yearly tours such as this, across Canada and Northern U.S.A.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChoir tours are one of the ways that we like to connect with CMU friends and alumni across Canada and the United States,\u201d says CMU Church and Alumni Relations Coordinator Eleonore Braun. \u201cThrough these tours, we look forward to meeting new people, renewing friendships, and worshipping together.<\/p>\n<p>CMU Singers 2912 Tour Schedule<\/p>\n<p>April 24 | 7:00 PM<br \/>\nEighth Street Mennonite Church<br \/>\n602 S 8th St, Goshen, IN<\/p>\n<p>April 25 | 7:30 PM<br \/>\nFloradale Mennonite Church<br \/>\n22 Florapine Rd, Floradale, ON<\/p>\n<p>April 26 | 7:30 PM<br \/>\nGrantham MB Church<br \/>\n469 Grantham Ave, St. Catharines, ON<\/p>\n<p>April 27 | 7:00 PM<br \/>\nWorshipping together with MCEC conference<br \/>\nUnited Mennonite Educational Institute<br \/>\n614 Mersea Road 6, Leamington, ON<\/p>\n<p>April 28 | 6:45 PM<br \/>\nConcert and Desert Fundraiser<br \/>\nUnited Mennonite Educational Institute<br \/>\n614 Mersea Road 6, Leamington, ON<br \/>\nPlease RSVP to Sheryl Penner 877.231.4570 or email shpenner@cmu.ca by April 16.<\/p>\n<p>April 29 | 9:45 AM<br \/>\nLeamington United Mennonite Church<br \/>\n78 Oak St E, Leamington, ON<\/p>\n<p>April 29 | 7:00 PM<br \/>\nWaterloo North Mennonite Church<br \/>\n100 Benjamin Rd, Waterloo, ON<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>April 23, 2012 \u2013 With the spring academic term over, the CMU Singers are wrapping up their time together by embarking on a final one-week tour, with seven performances scheduled for their April 24 to April 29 tour.
