ASC Choirs And ASC Honor Choirs To Perform At Richardson Auditorium And
Sacred Heart Church
The Adams State College choral program and Adams State Honor Choirs will give
three performances at Richardson Auditorium and at Sacred Heart Church in
Alamosa in conjunction with the Adams State Honor Choir Festival. The first
performance will start at 7 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 14; in Richardson, the second
at 8 p.m., Friday, Feb. 15, and the third at 2 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 16, both at
Sacred Heart.
Thursday’s performance will showcase the talents of 68 West, Adams State’s
vocal jazz ensemble, along with the 68 West Combo and the ASC Jazz Ensemble,
directed by Dr. Douglas Camp, assistant professor of music. Admission to this
concert is free to the public.
Friday’s performance will feature the Adams State Chamber and Concert Choirs.
They will be performing a wide variety of music in celebration of the many
aspects of life. Featured pieces include the ethereal and beautiful “Ave Maria”
by Austrian composer Franz Biebl, and a Mass setting by Dietrich Buxtehude. The
concert will culminate with the Concert Choir singing a combined work with the
Adams State Honor Choirs.
Saturday’s performance showcases the Adams State Honor Choirs, composed of
talented high school students from throughout Colorado. The mixed choir and the
women’s choir will be performing an eclectic program ranging from traditional
classical favorites to world music and gospel. We are honored this year to have
Brad Peterson as our clinician, who is the conductor of the well-known Pike’s
Peak Singers in Colorado Springs. There is no admission charge for Friday’s and
Saturday’s concerts: donations are encouraged.
