Utah State Chamber Singers and Symphony Orchestra Perform in Concert
LOGAN, – Utah State University’s Caine College of the Arts Music Department presents the USU Symphony Orchestra and USU Chamber Singers in concert Oct. 29 at the St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church at 7:30 p.m.
Admission is free and open to the public.
The performance features the USU Chamber Singers, USU Symphony Orchestra, Whitney Ecker and USU faculty performers Craig Jessop, Cory Evans, Sergio Bernal, Nicholas Morrison, Cindy Dewey and Michael Christiansen.
The music of Claudio Monteverdi, Vaughan Williams, Amadeus Mozart, Charles Griffes, Deborah Baker Monday and Sergio Bernal will be featured.  
Sergio Bernal, director of the USU Symphony Orchestra said, “I’m looking forward to having the chamber singers perform my piece and am honored to have Craig Jessop conduct it.”
According to Cory Evans, director of the USU Chamber Singers, the performance is off-campus to “celebrate the acoustics of the St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church and to get out into the community.  The concert will be held in a venue more closely related to Monteverdi’s time.”
The St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church is a partner of the event and is located at 725 South 250 East in Hyde Park.
More information is available online (www.arts.usu.edu) or call the CCA Box Office, 435-797-8022.
