IMC is an inclusive and diverse service organization open to all who support tenor-bass choirs.
Since its founding in 1915, Intercollegiate Men's Choruses, Inc., A National Association of Male Choruses, formerly the Intercollegiate Musical Council, has strived to promote quality men's chorus singing and music. Its membership is made up of Male Choruses/Glee Clubs of the nation's universities, colleges, and secondary schools. Associate Membership is also open to interested individuals, community and professional ensembles.
Through its publication QUODLIBET, and through its biennial National Seminar held on a member campus, IMC provides a wealth of information pertinent to conductors of male choruses. National Seminars include performances, reading sessions, interest sessions and sessions geared toward the student conductor. The IMC National Seminar is held during even-numbered years to avoid conflicts with ACDA national conferences.
Because of the COVID-19 Pandemic, we were forced to postpone this year's National Seminar. The Seminar will now be held in 2022 at Albion College. We hope to have most of the same performing groups and clinicians and we hope that Cantus will perform the opening night concert. Stay tuned for more details as they develop!
Our postponed National Seminar be hosted at Goodrich Chapel, Albion College in March 2022. The 1200-seat chapel has a large stage and room for all of us -- plans right now include a final concert with glee clubs from University of Michigan, Ohio State, and Harvard. Easy access to the Detroit airport, and a newly built Courtyard Marriott right in town will be our headquarters hotel. Interest sessions, reading sessions -- more male choral repertoire in two days that you would get in many years of attending other choral conventions.
