Miami Collegium Musicum Inc

The Miami Collegium Musicum is Miami’s community chamber choir. The Collegium’s 24 to 30 singers are of different backgrounds and of all ages–some members are students, some are faculty, some are in careers (teachers, medical people, bankers, attorneys), and some are retired. All make a commitment to learn music outside of regular Monday evening rehearsals, so that rehearsals focus on musicality and performance considerations.

Collegium has enriched Miami's choral culture since 1977 through unique concerts and collaborations with talented ensembles and composers. Founded by Dr. Donald Oglesby, the Collegium became well known for its annual Madrigal Dinners during the Christmas season; these grew to become the Holiday Dinners of the Frost School of Music’s Choral Program. Its acclaimed “Italian Baroque Christmas” in December, 2013, was sponsored by the Italian Consulate. In 2014 a French Baroque Christmas concert, sponsored by the French Consulate, Collegium was joined by the Ft. Lauderdale Singing Sons.

Over the years, Collegium has added repertoire from more contemporary composers, including locals Rachel Currea and David Pegel. Our choir continues to widen its horizons and flourish under the direction of Dr. Matthew Brady, our new artistic director as of 2023. This season, we continue our tradition of evensong services, holiday concerts, opus performances, and a Mothers' Day concert.

Still, we are always looking forward to and planning for new and exciting additions to our performances. You can learn more about us and stay up-to-date with our events on our social media and through our website at miamicollegium.org.
