Ensemble Montage is a collective of eleven professional musicians based in grand Rapids dedicated to presenting kaleidoscopic combinations of chamber music ranging from baroque trio sonata to music written by group member-composer Alexander Miller. Formed in 1997, the group specializes in repertoire which blends strings, woodwinds, piano and optional percussion as well. The group expands and contract as the program’s repertoire demands. They have added a trumpet, a vocalist, and extra viola, an army of overdubbed clarinets, and, on occasion, even an accordion or banjo.

The Alma Choir is the primary touring choir in the Alma choral program. The Choir’s reputation for excellence, its many traditions, and its ambitious performing, touring and recording schedule attract a group of talented students for whom choral singing is an important part of their lives. About 30% of Alma Choir members are preparing for careers as professional musicians. The other singers are busy preparing for careers in every imaginable area. The common thread that binds these students is the joy — emotional, intellectual and spiritual — found in singing together.
