About Collegium musicum

Collegium musicum is a Renaissance-style costumed ensemble of singers in grades 9 - 12 at Cabell Midland High School in Ona, WV. The students are selected by competitive audition in early spring each year during scheduling for the next school year. Each year, these singers present up to 40 programs to the community. Additionally, they have traveled each spring since the opening of the school in 1994. Performance venues have included such diverse locales as the Washington Cathedral, Washington, DC, St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin, Ireland, Toronto, CA and San Francisco in addition to local community and civic presentations. Additionally, Collegium musicum presents the Annual Christmas Madrigal Dinner on the second full week-end in December each year. Collegium musicum returned to Ireland in April of 2011 performing a joint concert with Mr. Timothy Waugh at Christchurch Cathedral, Dublin and at Bunratty Castle, Shannon.

The 18th Annual Christmas Madrigal Dinner was December 9 and 10, 2011. Thanks to all who attended! Both nights were sold out!

The 19th Annual Christmas Madrigal Dinner is planned for the 2nd week-end of December 2012. Please join us!
