The Goshen College Men’s Chorus, founded in 2004 and directed by Scott Hochstetler, associate professor of music, follows in the long tradition of GC male singing groups beginning with the men’s glee clubs and the Rambler Quartet of the early 1900s. Including music majors and non-music majors alike, the Men’s Chorus performs music from all genres and time periods with special emphasis on sacred a cappella literature.

Hochstetler is associate professor of music at Goshen College, where he teaches in the choral, vocal and opera theater programs. Under his direction, the Goshen College Men’s Chorus performed to acclaim at the ACDA regional convention in March 2012.
