Cardinal Singers typically includes approximately 15-24 mixed voices and the group performs a range of choral styles. Recent contemporary works have included pieces by Charles Ives, arrangements of pop tunes, as well as jazz tunes. The group also enjoys singing more traditional choral repertoire, including English and Italian madrigals, and larger works, such as Bernstein's Chichester Psalms, Orff's Carmina Burana, Bach Cantatas #106 and #23, Mozart's Vespers solennes de confessore, and the Brahms Liebeslieder Waltzes. In Spring 2004, Cardinal Singers joined with Champlain Valley Oratorio Society and Choral Union to perform Brahms' A German Requiem.
Frequently performing for special college functions, Cardinal Singers contributes to such events as December and May graduation ceremonies, the Arts & Science Academic Awards ceremony each May, and special events during Family and Homecoming Weekends in the fall. Off campus, the group performs for events during the community 's annual September festivities commemorating the historic Battle of Plattsburgh. They also performed with the Navy Band Northeast in Fall 2007.
