Members of the Vanguard University One Voice are selected through an audition and interview process. The ensemble represents almost all of the 40 academic majors offered at Vanguard University, with more than half of the members being non-music majors. One Voice performs locally at churches, schools, and conferences while performing a traditional, classical, sacred, praise and worship, and contemporary Christian arrangements. This ensemble has recently been headed by Dr. Prado who pushes the students to performance perfection while masterfully keeping the mood positive and growth fun!

Outside of major university events, notable venues that One Voice has performed in are the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall and Carnegie Hall in New York. One Voice frequently travels to local churches and high schools to showcase their wide range of repertoire. In the case of high school visitations, a choral exchange often occurs as well as a time for mentorship from Vanguard to the high school students.

The Vanguard Worship Collective has recently been restructured to equip our students with Worship Leadership skills. Members of the Vanguard Worship Collective are selected through audition and interview process, and each student is additionally a member of another of our large ensembles. Beyond performing locally at churches, schools, and conferences, the students of this small ensemble gain experience in song writing and study the heart behind leading a congregation of believers. These students represent a wonderful cross-section of the academic majors offered at Vanguard University, both music and non-music majors.

The Vanguard Worship Collective primarily ministers at local schools and churches. These tours are a growing opportunity for the student leaders as they are not only able to represent the University and God’s Kingdom, but also gain a cross-cultural awareness and perspective.
