The choirs of Muskingum College from New Concord, Ohio, will make a stop at First Presbyterian as part of their 2009 spring tour. The 48-voice Concert Choir and 12-voice Chamber Singers will present a program of choral delights on Monday, March 2 at 7:30 PM. The singers will showcase a wide variety of repertoire, from Renaissance madrigals to folksong arrangements to Broadway showstoppers. Muskingum alumnus Robert Owen Jones, Professor of Music and Director of Choirs at the college, will take the podium for the performance.
Muskingum college, founded in 1837, is a broad-based liberal arts institution serving over 1600 students. The Concert Choir and Chamber Singers, comprised of 60 percent non-music majors, have met with enthusiastic responses from audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. The choirs tour annually during the spring semester, with Meadville representing one of 12 engagements on this year’s tour. For further information contact Kevin Dill at 333-2161.
