Simply the Best October 2014

My name is Simone Bunsen and I am happy to announce that I will be serving as the Wisconsin Singers' Administrative Assistant this year. I am a senior studying Communication Arts and Creative Writing, and I'm excited to keep you updated on all things Wisconsin Singers!

This year's show provides a treat that satisfies any musical taste bud. With classic songs from the Beatles to current pop hits from Beyoncé, you'll leave the Wisconsin Singers' show with a cleansed and satisfied palette.

With the start of the new school year, the troupe is full of fresh faces and the Singers are ready to showcase their talent! Join us in welcoming the new year and talent at one of our upcoming events!

On Wisconsin!

SINGERS FOR SINGERS: David Porto

As the Wisconsin Singers begins a new year, I am reminded of the great connections and friendships I developed while spending 6 years performing on stage with some of the finest talent that UW-Madison has to offer. Sitting in the audience at Music Hall, I was reminded of the jitters that I experienced before my first Friends and Family performance.
