The Iowa State Singers, a traveling mixed choral ensemble of 58 voices will concertize in Norway May 14-26, singing in Oslo, Bergen, Førde, Ålesund, Molde, and Trondheim. This select ensemble from Iowa State University, U.S.A. performs the finest choral repertoire from Renaissance to contemporary. This year’s program includes new works by American composers Jake Runestad and Elaine Hagenberg. Other featured composers will be Bruckner, Sweelinck, Purcell, Grieg, Pietro Ferrario, and Frank Martin. Arrangements of folk music and spirituals will conclude each program.

The Iowa State Singers have been honored in recent years with invitations to perform at the American Choral Directors Association (ACDA) and the National Collegiate Choral Organization (NCCO) national music conferences in 2005, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2015, and 2019. Thousands of choral conductors from the United States and abroad have responded enthusiastically to the choir's performances. In 2013 the Singers were honored as the national winners of The American Prize, College/University Chorus Division.
