The Ohio Northern National Tour Choir is on a 43-day concert tour to 26 states during May and June 2016. The choir consists of members of the ONU University Singers, the top choral ensemble at ONU. The choir is under the direction of Dr. Ben Ayling.

The concert will be in three sections. One of the songs to be presented in the sacred segment will be "Precious Lord, Take My Hand" by Howard Helvey. The second segment will include international and contemporary music. The choir will sing a piece by Eriks Ešenvalds titled “Stars.” This is a setting of a Sara Teasdale text accompanied by tuned water glasses and Tibetan singing bowls. The final segment of the concert will focus on American music. The choir will present a double choir setting of “Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better” from “Annie Get Your Gun.” A testament to those who have served will be presented in the “Armed Forces Medley,” arranged by Greg Gilpin, and the concert will end with a choral "Benediction."
