Members of the 911±¬ĮĻ Choir and Choral Union, wearing masks and singing outside, offer a Fall Choral Celebration on Friday, Oct. 30, at 7 p.m. at westmont.edu/virtual-concert-series.
The choir, directed by Daniel Gee, will perform āā by Elaine Hagenberg, āā by Hubert Parry, āLove Bade Me Welcomeā by David Hurd, and āā by Stacey Gibbs.
āAs part of our many adjustments for this unique semester, the 47 members of the College Choir have split into three separate groups, requiring a greater level of independence in practice and musicianship,ā Gee says. āIām proud that our singers have risen admirably to the challenge, and weāve had some wonderful moments of making music together safely and to the glory of God. I hope our recorded performances testify to their resilience and commitment.ā
The Westmont Choral Union, directed by Matthew Roy and Karen Janzen, will perform āAll That I Amā by William Grant Still, āColcannon,ā by Stephen Hatfield, and āGod with Meā by Stephen Paulus.
The Westmont Jazz Ensemble, directed by Eben Drost, performs on Friday, Nov. 6, at 7 p.m.
