Malmgren Concert Series — A World of Song

Join us for “A World of Song,” the Setnor School of Music’s fall choral concert, on Sunday, November 17 at 4 PM at Hendricks Chapel. This performance will feature the University Singers, Concert Choir, and Hendricks Chapel Choir, showcasing a rich tapestry of choral music.

The University Singers, the premier choral ensemble of the university led by Dr. John Warren, will take on the majority of the program. Their repertoire selections explore questions and mysteries of the sacred, time, worry, and fear, including Dale Trumbore’s “In the Middle” and Terry Schlenker’s setting of “Timor et Tremor” (“Fear and Trembling”). Recently, this esteemed group has traveled to Brazil in 2024, won the Grand Prix de Ville de Tours, France in 2015, and competed in the European Grand Prix in Bulgaria in 2016, affirming their status as a leading choral ensemble.

The Concert Choir, directed by Dr. Wendy Moy, offers a unique singing experience to students and staff from all areas of university life. Their repertoire spans diverse historical, cultural, and stylistic origins.

The Hendricks Chapel Choir, directed by Professor José “Peppie” Calvar and accompanied by University Organist Anne Laver and Hendricks Chapel Organ Scholar Annie Spink, comprises students from various disciplines and plays a significant role in the spiritual life on campus. The choir performs at significant university events, serves as the musical anchor to the Malmgren Concert Series, and brings a deep sense of community and tradition to their music.

This event is co-sponsored by the Setnor School of Music, College of Visual and Performing Arts.
