Enjoy The Best In Choral Music From One Of The Premier Groups In Minnesota!Saturday, April 30th at 7:30 p.m.Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church Sunday, May 1st at 3:00 p.m.St. Clement's Episcopal ChurchBemidji Alumni Choir, under the direction of Dr. Paul Brandvik, will feature the a cappella style of choral music. This style of choral music emphasizes accurate intonation, unity of tone within each section, and phrasing that captures the deeper meaning of the text. The a cappella style flourished in the early twentieth century with F. Melius Christiansen, at St. Olaf College, and has since become the hallmark of Minnesota choirs. The music of Brahms, Schütz, Scarlatti, Howells, Byrd, Paul Manz, and Paul Brandvik will be featured as well as arrangements of American hymns and spirituals.
There will be a reception following the May 1st concert sponsored by the BSU Alumni Association. |
