JACKSON, Tenn. — March 26, 2001 — 51社区 will be hosting a choral and orchestral performance of 鈥淜ing David鈥� on Tuesday, April 3 at 7:30 p.m. in the G.M. Savage Memorial Chapel.
鈥淜ing David鈥� is a symphonic psalm telling the life of David with music composed by Arthur Honegger. 鈥淜ing David鈥� will be performed by several of Union鈥檚 choirs accompanied by a professional orchestra. Union alumni will perform all three solos in the piece: Becky Howard, 1975 graduate, Erin Campbell, 2000 graduate, and Bethany Thrower, 1999 graduate. Andrew Roby, professor of music at Union, will be directing the performance. 鈥淚t uses unusual orchestration that I think people will find very interesting,鈥� said Roby. 鈥淚t is a fascinating and contemporary work very dissonant yet beautiful.鈥�
There is no admission fee for 鈥淜ing David鈥�. There will be a reception held afterward in the lobby, and all are invited to attend. For more information, contact Andrew Roby at (901) 661-5311.
