Viridis (formerly Women’s Glee Club) is Latin for ‘green’ and a performing ensemble of treble voices consisting primarily of non-music majors that performs several times throughout the academic year. Performing a vast array of music—from Renaissance through contemporary—Viridis participates in in-state festivals and often collaborates with ensembles from other universities. The ensemble is open without audition to all treble singers on the MSU campus.
