The Veld Challenge

dr. henry veld and choir students

Thanks to generous alumni and friends of the Augustana Choir, we were able to honor the legacy of Dr. Veld by naming a choir rehearsal room in his honor. All donors giving at the amounts below will be listed on a plaque outside of the rehearsal room. Through your generosity, the legacy of Dr. Veld will continue to be a powerful presence in Bergendoff Hall, helping inspire students in their passion for music.

Giving levels for the celebration include:

Conductor level: $5,000 and above

Gold level: $2,500

Blue level: $1,000

Augustana Choir level: $500

Students in conducting class

Students in conducting classes also meet in the new choir rehearsal room. Here, a student conducts her classmates and Dr. Michael Zemek (far right). Chris Nelson is the accompanist.
