Ensemble singing has always been an important part of traditional campus life at Bryn Mawr and Haverford. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Bi-Co Chorale Director brought together 140 current and former students to perform J. S. Bach’s Dona nobis pacem. The singers were accompanied by a 10-piece orchestra of local professional musicians. Among the singers were 23 current Bryn Mawr students and 18 alums.
The video of the Chorale’s virtual performance—pieced together from more than 150 individual audio tracks by Alexander Brusencev, an audio engineer from Frankfurt, Germany—premiered New Year’s Day 2021.
