Alumni, parents and friends will have the opportunity to hear this acclaimed ensemble present another of their trademark concerts of engaging music ranging from traditional to contemporary. After 24 years, this will be the final tour by the Concert Choir with Dan Graves conducting.
• Concert Choir Prepares for Conductor's Final Tour

Opening with Jean Belmont's lush setting of If Music Be the Food of Love, the Concert Choir will then continue with two short contemporary pieces by Miskinis and Lange before concluding the first set with the powerfully moving Horizons by Peter Louis Van Dijk.
The Madrigal Singers will then offer vocal chamber music from the 16th through 20th centuries. John Farmer's ever-popular Fair Phyllis I Saw Sitting All Alone will be followed by Monteverdi's atmospherically flowing Ecco Mormorar l'Onde. A rarely performed part song by Haydn, Die Warnung, will bridge the chronological gap to the twentieth century represented by selections by Vaughan Williams and Menotti. The set will conclude with the poignant Renaissance piece, O Musika, by Peuerl.
In keeping with Earlham's continuing commitment to international education and the choir's dedication to diverse repertoire, the Concert Choir's final set will present works from Kenya, Brazil, New Zealand, Sweden, Cuba and Japan as well as the United States. The program will conclude with the traditional Quaker hymn How Can I Keep from Singing?
