Student and community choirs perform concert

Tenors rang and Altos boomed Sunday evening as the CSC Concert Choir and Community Chorus performed in the Memorial Hall Auditorium. Dr. Joel Shreuder directed the event, and pianist Bobby Pace accompanied the singers. 

The concert was divided into three sections; one in which the Community Chorus sang, one in which the Concert Choir sang, and a final segment with the two groups collaborating together. The performance began at 3 p.m. with the Community Chorus’s section. This non-student group sang four songs. These songs included “Laughing Song” by David Dickau, which featured junior flutist Kaye Cunningham, junior of Torrington, Wyoming, and Jonathan Quick’s arrangement of “Loch Lomond,” which featured solos by chorus members Jeffrey Milburn and John Adams. 

 Next performing was the Concert Choir, which is made up of students. They performed five songs, including Robert Harris’s popular “The Silver Swan” and “Three Madrigals” by George L Mabry. After the Concert Choir finished the last notes of Daniel J. Hall’s “The Fiddler of Dooney,” both of the choirs joined for the last segment of the concert. This combined choir showcased their talent as they sang three pieces, and concluded with a rendition of the popular American Folk Song “Clementine,” by John David Earnest.

Upcoming concerts include Kaye Cunningham’s junior flute recital April 28 at 3 p.m. in the Sandoz Chicoine Atrium.
