Choir lists spring tour stops in Midwest
The Augustana Choir, under the direction of Dr. Jon Hurty, will perform concerts in Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa in March and April 2023.
The 52-voice ensemble will sing a selection of traditional and contemporary choral works. The choir is known for its innovative programming, attention to detail, and musical excellence.
The choir has a tradition of touring abroad and throughout the U.S. and has been invited to sing at many state and regional conventions. The group’s most recent tour, in the summer of 2022, was to Germany and the Czech Republic.
"Our Midwest tours are always filled with the opportunity to interact with high school students," said Dr. Hurty. "We often collaborate with local high schools and have them perform a short set of music on our program and then sing together with them. This provides a rich experience, both for high school students that might consider attending Augustana as well as for our music education students.
"Midwest tours also allow us to rekindle contacts with alumni and close friends of our program — something that is especially important to the choir."
