The Value of Discomfort
![]()
Dance
Learning to dance with others can be awkward—and intimate. Beginners step on toes, stumble, and feel silly. To progress, they must take chances and step outside their comfort zones.

College Community Chorus
Voices from the College and local communities singing together
Spring rehearsals begin Sunday, February 10!!
This spring, we explore delightful music by Antonio Vivaldi; American composer Emma Lou Diemer's settings of Shakespeare texts; selected works with rich choral sounds by award-winning American composer Morten Lauridsen; and an energetic arrangement of traditional texts entitled Sing a New Song.
One of the ways that town and gown come together in Middlebury is through the 100-member College Community Chorus, headed up by Jeff Rehbach, who works in LIS. On Tuesday and Sunday evenings during the fall and spring semesters, a couple of dozen students -- some who love singing, others singing in a choir for the first time -- join folks from throughout the greater Addison County area (including College staff and alumni) to share in the experience of making music together.
