Concordia College, located in Moorhead, MN (just across the border from Fargo, ND), is the home of the choir.  For the past 25 years, the choir has been led by Dr. Rene Clausen, a world-famous conductor who has conducted one of his own works in Carnegie Hall.  Under his direction, the choir has received many accolades:  The New York Times remarks on its “remarkable virtuosity;” while San Francisco Chronicle praises it for its “sheer beauty;” and The Grand Rapids Press says that the choir “lives up to its reputation… as one of the very best college choirs.”  The choir has also received praise from Garrison Keillor of “A Prairie Home Companion,” The Sacramento Bee, and Arizona Daily Star, among others.
