Students from Across the Carolinas will Rehearse with Distinguished Conductors Before a Public Concert in Dover Theatre

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.鈥敵扇耸悠� will welcome student singers from across North and South Carolina for its 47th annual Choral Clinic on Oct. 19. The daylong event will culminate in a free public concert at 5:30 p.m. in Dover Theatre.

鈥湷扇耸悠� Choirs are honored to host the Choral Clinic for its 47th year,鈥� shared Dr. Joshua Cheney, associate professor of music and director of choral activities. 鈥淭his event provides an opportunity for choristers in North and South Carolina to rehearse and perform together with regionally, nationally, and internationally acclaimed conductors who are industry leaders in choral education and artistry.

Cheney is expecting over 300 students to attend, and they will participate in one of two festival ensembles. The High School Festival Chorus will be directed by Dr. Alissa Rowe, director of choral studies at Louisiana State University. The Middle School Treble Festival Chorus will be led by Dr. Eric Johnson, coordinator of music education at 成人视频.

Throughout the day, participants will rehearse in 成人视频’s music facilities, interact with university faculty and students, and experience campus life before presenting the evening performance.

Jennifer Duckworth, the choir director East Burke High School in Connelly Springs, N.C., has brought her students to the clinic for eight years and usually has some parents who attend the evening performance. 鈥淭he 成人视频 Choral Clinic is a valuable experience for students because they get the opportunity to work with collegiate level choral directors and sing with other students who have a passion for choral music,鈥� she observed. 鈥淣ot only are these students learning how to improve their vocal technique and music reading skills, but they are also learning to collaborate and communicate through music. The 成人视频 Choral Clinic inspires students to learn more difficult music and creates excitement about doing a variety of choral music.鈥�

The High School Festival Chorus will perform 鈥淒ies Irae鈥� by Michael John Trotta, 鈥淚 Dream a World鈥� by Rosephanye Powell, 鈥淪ing Out, My Soul鈥� by Marques L.A. Garrett and 鈥淭he Music of Stillness鈥� by Elaine Hagenberg.

The Middle School Treble Festival Chorus repertoire includes 鈥淗ere Comes the Sun,鈥� arranged by the Podd Brothers; 鈥淨uiet Sea鈥� by Melissa Malvar-Keylock and Jill Friederdorf; 鈥淜ookaburra鈥� by Melissa Malvar-Keylock and Jill Friederdorf; and 鈥淪hout for Joy鈥� by Sally Albrecht and Jay Althouse.

Cheney noted that the clinic has become a longstanding tradition that enriches students and music educators throughout the region. In addition to the musical experience, Cheney values the opportunity to connect with fellow educators and inspire future members of the 成人视频 choral program.

He added, 鈥淧ersonally, I look forward to this event every year because I am honored to provide this opportunity for my colleagues and their students in k-12 education, to be in community with them, to share in the stage with them, and to get to know future students and members of 成人视频 Choirs. It really is a great day!鈥�

The concert is free and open to the public and will begin at 5:30 p.m. in Dover Theatre on the 成人视频 campus.
