The Choirs

Howard University Chapel Choir serves as the resident choir for Sunday Chapel services. Under the leadership of Mr. Ned Lewis the choir is nationally recognized for providing the finest and diverse sacred music. The choir consists of students, faculty, staff, and other vocalists from the wider University community. The weekly repertoire of the Chapel choir’s ministry spans the full spectrum of sacred music genres including classical, operatic, anthems, spirituals, gospel and contemporary traditions. It preserves and leads the congregation in hymns during the Chapel worship services. The choir has performed with full orchestral accompaniment and shares its ministry to encourage high school youth to graduate and attend college, particularly Howard University.

Members are Howard University students who exhibit musical talent and concur with the chief purposes of the choir.
