Hello everyone,
2017 is a great year at Morgan State University - celebrating one hundred and fifty years!
On
this coming Friday, April 7, 2017 at 8PM, the Fine and Performing Arts
department will present an Evening of Operatic Arias all sung by Morgan
State University Choir alumni. Over the years the choir has had so very
many incredible voices - not just ensemble voices, but unique solo
voices. I am still amazed at the success our singers have had over the
years, particularly in the field of opera. We have had several choir
members sing at some of the biggest opera houses in the world -
including the Metropolitan Opera in New York City.
We
believed that a unique event for Morgan would be to invite back some of
our Morgan State University Choir alumni, who have gone on to have
success in opera, to sing a favorite aria of their choosing for their
Morgan family. Friday’s concert is that event!
This
concert will be held at the Murphy Fine Arts Center’s Gilliam Concert
Hall on Friday, April 7, 2017 at 8PM. The concert is free!. The
following former choir members will sing: Crystal Freeman, Tavonne
Hasty, Janice Jackson, Joseph Johnson, Jessica Lynn, Kenneithia
Mitchell, Candace Potts, Anika Sampson-Anderson, and Kevin Short.
Earlier
in the day, acclaimed baritone, Kevin Short will give a Vocal Master
Class for our Music majors, from 3:30-5:30 in our Recital Hall - also
free to the public.
Even
if you are not the biggest opera fan, you will want to come out just to
hear these superb voices. I believe that you will enjoy the evening!
