With a little bit of Duke Ellington and a little bit of Handel, the University of Dayton Chorale and Choral Union fall concert promises to deliver an enjoyable mix of music that spans centuries, countries and cultures, said Chorale Director Robert Jones. The concert will be at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 17, at UD's Immaculate Conception Chapel.
Admission is free and open to the public.
Each chorus is comprised of approximately 40 voices and will perform several selections on a theme. The ensemble regularly performs sacred and secular music in a variety of a cappella and accompanied styles that range from Broadway tunes to choral classics of all eras. Director Donna Cox said the ensemble regularly performs a wide range of choral literature from European and American classical to jazz and spirituals. The chorale performed a European tour earlier this year, becoming the first UD ensemble to travel abroad.
