The first half of the concert will be centered around Latvian composer Laura Jekabsone's Sudraba Mēness as well as the amazing Sihr Khalaq-an incredible combination of Arabic rhythm, textures and style. The University Singers, conducted by Shane M. Lynch, are finalists for the City of Derry International Choir Festival in October, and are the first American choir ever to be selected for this competition. They will present both their Competition Concert set and Gala Concert set, which feature the music of Tomás Luis de Victoria, Frank Martin, Stacey V. Gibbs and Rosephayne Powell. Traditional favorites will round out the evening, finally closing with James Erb's Shenandoah.
