Denison Chamber Singers Present a Schubertiad Concert

Posted: March 1, 2004

The Denison Chamber Singers, under the direction of Stephen Caracciolo, will offer its third performance of the year at 8 p.m., Thursday (March 11) in Swasey Chapel. Admission is free and open to the public.

The University's select vocal ensemble will present a Schubertiad, an evening of chamber music consisting of German and English part songs, folk songs, and art songs of the Austrian composer Franz Schubert and his contemporaries. The music will be performed in a 19th century parlor fashion, or an informal concert. The evening's musical offerings will also include folk songs from the British Isles, including Joseph Flummerfelt's harmonization of "Danny Boy," as well as a potpourri of other well-known favorites.

Guest student artists from the vocal studios of instructors Belinda Andrews-Smith and Kevin Wines will be joining the Denison Chamber Singers, with piano accompaniment by instructor Sarah Ramsey.
