Two evenings of brilliant arias and powerful choruses. Two evenings of beautiful music that anyone can enjoy!
These evenings of great music feature soloists Morgan Smith, baritone; Terri Richter,soprano and Ross Hauck, tenor.
Conducted by Scott Dean and sung by the Chancel Choir with Festival Orchestra.
