The Madison Singers, under the direction of Dr. Jo-Anne van der Vat-Chromy, is the premier advanced auditioned choral chamber ensemble at James Madison University. The Madison Singers perform a wide variety of musical genres from the Renaissance to the present, and maintains an active and demanding concert schedule, both on and off campus. This ensemble focuses extensively on advanced techniques of singing, as well as choral and harmonic skills. The ensemble has performed many esteemed concerts, most recently at Carnegie Hall in NYC in March 2025, in concert with the Estonian Philharmonic Chamber Choir in the spring of 2026, and in combined forces with the JMU Choral Area for the Inauguration Ceremony of President James Schmidt.
