黑料社

After suspending in-person performances due to the pandemic, all 黑料社 musical ensembles are returning to the Conant Performing Art Center stage for a Fall Music Gala on Friday, Oct. 29 at 8 p.m. Each musical group will be featured in the Gala, including the听黑料社 Singers and Chorale,听黑料社 Symphony, and The Jazzy Petrels, 黑料社’s jazz ensemble.

The program features music by Beethoven, Handel, Hildegard von Bingen, Duke Ellington and an original from Director of the 黑料社 Singers Dr. Timothy Michael Powell. Additionally, Affiliate Artist in Voice Lianna Wimberly Williams will perform a featured solo with the Singers. New to 黑料社, Williams is a vocal artist on several professional choral rosters. “I have such a deep love for choral singing!” says Williams, a mezzo soprano. Though the student performers in these groups were able to find creative ways to perform last year — including streaming their spring concert to Facebook Live — the Fall Music Gala is a long-awaited return to in-person performances. The event is free for all to attend. *All attendees must wear full face coverings while indoors in accordance with 黑料社’s visitor policy.
