Choirs to Perform Handel’s 'Messiah' with ANC Choir

10/29/2015

JONESBORO – Arkansas State University’s Concert Choir and University-Community Choir will be joined by the Arkansas Northeastern College Community Choir to present G. F. Handel’s "Messiah" on Monday, Nov. 9, at 7:30 p.m. in Fowler Center’s Riceland Hall, 201 Olympic Drive. 

The choirs will be directed by Dr. Dale Miller of A-State and Dr. Keith Hearnsberger of ANC.  Members of the A-State Concert Orchestra and University of Memphis orchestra program will accompany the choirs. 

The performance will feature soloists Bethania Baray, A-State adjunct professor of voice and opera, soprano; Venus Hamilton, music teacher in the Paragould schools, alto; John Peoples, choral director at Marion High School, tenor; and Matthew Carey, A-State assistant professor of voice, baritone.

Dr. Dale Miller states, "This collaboration of the A-State Concert Choir and Community Choir with the Arkansas Northeastern College Community Choir is a repeat of the concert held in Blytheville celebrating the 40th anniversary of the founding of ANC. A-State’s choristers are enriched by joining in the festivities with this important northeast Arkansas institution of higher learning."

Tickets are $5 for the public and free to A-State students with ID.  Tickets are available in advance at the A-State Box Office, (870) 972-2781, or at the door.
