Since its humble beginnings in 1984 with eight members, the choir has grown to 25 strong voices. The purpose of the choir is to share the cultural history of African Americans through gospel music. The gospel choir goal is to educate the campus and surrounding communities to this unique form of music and to develop an appreciation for African American religious expression. The choir attempts to reach this goal mainly through concerts and social interaction. Another characteristic of the UNI Gospel Choir is its multicultural makeup.
All individuals are welcome.
In addition to traditional gospel music, the choir also performs contemporary gospel, spirituals, and anthems. Audiences of all ages and races have enjoyed the music of the UNI Gospel Choir. Over the past years, the choir has been fortunate enough to have met and shared their music with choirs from most of the other colleges and universities throughout the state.
