CASA - The Contemporary A Capella Society

Vocal Chords is the weekly a cappella and vocal music show from the College of Journalism & Mass Communications at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.   The show airs/streams from 8:00-10:00 a.m. CST (-05:00 GMT) on Friday mornings, repeating in the same time slot on Sunday mornings.

Streaming audio is available at http://krnu.unl.edu (select the 90.3 KRNU option)
or on iTunes - select 90.3 KRNU from the list of college/university radio stations

An unexpected death this week means I have a funeral to attend on Friday morning, so I had to program a repeat this morning – the show from the weekend of August 20 of last year.  Back next weekend with a new live show.

Got new music you’d like to share with my audience?  My full contact information is at the bottom of this playlist.  The e-mail address for the show is vocalchords2@unl.edu.
