Members of Alamance Chorale to Perform at Carnegie Hall
Alamance Chorale is excited to announce that 26 of its singers will travel to New York City to perform at Carnegie Hall on November 16. The singers will join members of choirs from across the United States for Spirit of Freedom, a special concert presented by Distinguished Concerts International New York that celebrates new music, civic pride, and holiday joy.
The concert will feature the works of three American composers, each conducting selections of their own choral and symphonic music. Alamance Chorale will join fellow singers under the direction of Craig Courtney, who will conduct several of his best-known works, including Divine Encounter.
Courtney is a prominent composer, arranger, and choral clinician whose music is performed by churches, universities, and professional ensembles around the world. With more than 400 published choral works performed on six continents, he has established an international reputation for his contributions to choral music. Alamance Chorale is honored to be part of this memorable evening of music at one of the world’s most renowned concert halls. Local audiences will have the opportunity to hear the Alamance Chorale perform Divine Encounter during its annual Christmas Concert.
