Westminster Choir College

Westminster Choir College of Rider University is a professional college of music located on a 23-acre campus in Princeton, N.J., seven miles north of Rider’s Lawrenceville campus. The Master of Music (M.M.) degree is offered in choral conducting, composition, music education, organ performance, piano accompanying and coaching, piano pedagogy and performance, piano performance, sacred music, and voice pedagogy and performance. In addition, the college offers the Master of Music Education (M.M.E.) and Master of Voice Pedagogy (M.V.P.) degrees.

Choral music performance lies at the heart of the Westminster program. Preparation and performance of choral/orchestral works at times takes precedence over all facets of campus life. All graduate students sing for a minimum of one year in the Westminster Symphonic Choir. They also may audition to become members of the Westminster Choir, Williamson Voices, Westminster Kantorei, Jubilee Singers, and Concert Handbell Choir.

The Symphonic Choir has performed hundreds of times and made many recordings with the principal orchestras of New York, Philadelphia and Washington. It also has performed in New York with many touring orchestras such as the Atlanta Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Berlin Philharmonic, and Vienna Philharmonic. Virtually every major conductor of the 20th century, from Toscanini and Walter through Bernstein, Muti and Masur, has conducted the Symphonic Choir during the 80 years of the college’s history.
