Luther College Nordic Choir

Nordic Choir is the principal touring choir at Luther College, and in 2022, it completed a yearlong celebration of concerts, events, and commissions in recognition of its 75th anniversary. Nordic Choir honours the Lutheran choral tradition while exploring new and innovative choral works that span styles and genres. The ensemble of undergraduate students studying various academic disciplines has earned a reputation as one of the premier collegiate choral ensembles in the United States on the strength of performances described as “thrilling”, “breathtaking” and “rock-solid in intonation and rhythmic clarity”.

The choir has toured extensively throughout the United States, and also tours internationally. Conductor Dr. Andrew Last believes choral music is far more than a vessel for music education and performance. He views his role as facilitating the journey from technical artistry to an emotional awakening, saying, “Great choral music stirs within us a spirit and passion, connecting us in a community of belonging and acceptance.”
