The oldest music performance organization at the college is The Millsaps Singers. Membership in The Singers is open to all students by audition. Each year this 70-80 voice choir performs a variety of accompanied and a cappella music for the College and community, and there is usually at least one performance with a professional orchestra. The Millsaps Singers traditionally perform a fall concert, a Christmas concert, and two spring concerts. Music for Singers includes a highly diverse repertoire - masterworks, international and ethnic works, and recent additions to the choral repertory. Academic credit is awarded for participation each semester.
