Utah State Choral Ensembles Present “Autumn Voices” with Handcrafted Bells
LOGAN, Utah – The Choral Ensembles of USU’s Caine College of the Arts Music Department present “Autumn Voices” October 6, 2010, in the USU Performance Hall at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets are $8 for reserved seating and free for USU students with ID.
The performance features the USU Chamber Singers, USU Chorale, and USU Women’s Choir.
The music of Claudio Monteverdi, James Mulholland, Daniel E. Gawthrop, Bob Chilcott, and Michael McGlynn will be featured.
Several handcrafted bells created by local metal artist, Doug Adams, will be used during the performance as well.
“I’ve always been drawn to Doug’s incredible bell sculptures,” says Dr. Cory Evans, Director of Choral Activities. “We thought it would be neat to hear them ringing in the Performance Hall along with the beautiful voices of these student singers. I’m excited to hear how it will sound.”
The USU Women’s Choir will be directed by Dr. Michael Huff, Director of Special Programs with the Caine College of the Arts and newly-appointed director of the Women’s Choir.
“Dr. Huff and I have wanted to work together for years, and it is a delight to see his new leadership of the Women’s Choir,” Dr. Evans said.
