The choirs will be accompanied by the Caprock Pro Musica Chamber Orchestra from Lubbock, Texas, and directed by Dr. Jason Paulk, director of choral activities at ENMU.
The musical program features special pieces for men's chorus, women's chorus, and a solo performance of "Ständchen-Serenade" by Dr. Jeanie Ornellas, ENMU professor of music, with the women's chorus. The major work of the concert will be the combined choruses' performance of Schubert's Mass in G, featuring solo performances by ENMU students. A reception following the performance will allow audience and performances to visit in the foyer of the Theatre Center.
