The Simon's Rock Chorus is the largest performing group at the college and sings a wide variety of music from five centuries. Recent concerts have included Schubert's Mass in G and Purcell's Dido & Aeneas. They will be joined by Simon's Rock's two smaller select a cappella ensembles, Anoymous 10 and Tapestry. Anonymous 10 is a women's a cappella early music ensemble that frequently performs off-campus. Most recently they sang a program at Emmanuel Church in Boston. Tapestry, a new mixed voice group at Simon's Rock, also specializes in medieval, renaissance and contemporary a cappella music. Tapestry makes it's debut this spring. All three choruses are led by Jack Brown
