Ball State Chamber Choir and Concert Choir 3pm @ Sursa Performance Hall, Ball State University Corner of Riverside and McKinley
About
Under the direction of Andrew Crow and Kerry Glann, the Ball State Choirs present a series of concerts each year featuring a wide range of music from around the world and across the centuries.
The Ball State University Chamber Choir is the university’s most prestigious concert choir, typically comprising 32 singers: mostly upper-level music majors and graduate students. The Concert Choir is a select ensemble open to students of all disciplines by audition.
Program
The program is themed around nature and finding hope, peace, and joy. The concert will feature several selections of South African music as a nod to the November concert from guest artists Soweto Gospel Choir.
Chamber Choir
Featuring composers Jake Runestad and Zanaida Stewart Robles. Chamber Choir will also perform a student composition called “The Glade” by Theodore Hicks, who is completing his doctoral studies this semester!
Concert Choir
Music by Ola Gjielo, Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina (honoring the 500th anniversary of his birth), Felix Mendelssohn, Jake Runestad, Melissa Dunphy, and Thabo Matshego.
Palestrina’s “Sicut cervus” and Mendelssohn’s “Wie der Hirsch schreit” form a coupling as settings of the same Psalm text (Ps 42, Like as the hart desireth the waterbrook…) in different languages and composed across a time span of roughly 250 years.
The Melissa Dunphy piece “I Took a Walk with Joy” featuring poetry by alum Mark A. Boyle.
Connecting to the campus visit of the Soweto Gospel Choir in November, Concert Choir will present Matshego’s “Ukholo lwami,” an arrangement of two traditional South African gospel songs.Tickets

1:30–4:30 p.m. (Saturday)In Paris in 1929, Belgian painter and critic Michel Seuphor (1901–1999), Uruguayan painter and theorist Joaquín Torres-García (1874–1949), and Catalan-American artist Pierre Daura (1896–1976) founded an influential but short-lived artistic group named Circle and Square, after the geometric shapes fundamental to abstract art. The group attracted more than eighty international artists including Jean Arp (1886–1966), Le Corbusier (1887–1965), Alexandra Exter (1882–1949), Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944), Nadia Khodasevich Léger (1904–1987), Fernand Léger (1881–1955), and Sophie Täuber-Arp (1889–1943), among other famous and lesser-known personalities in the Parisian art world. Cercle et Carré and the International Spirit of Abstract Art showcases more than sixty works by thirty of Cercle et Carré’s participants, as well as outlines the formation of the group and its artistic legacy.
The exhibition was organized by the Georgia Museum of Art, University of Georgia, with the addition of works from the collection of the David Owsley Museum of Art. Generous support for the exhibition was provided by the Daura Foundation.

When Billy the goat, Slim the pig, and Nell the cat overhear the Farmer and his Wife plotting to get rid of Donny the donkey, they rush to warn their friend. Dreamer that he is, Donny decides to escape and pursue his dream of becoming a famous musician in Brementown. Along the way, he’s joined by Minnie, a retired show dog, and later Nell, both eager to find a new future. As the mismatched group tries to make music together, their noisy efforts may not be music to the ears—but their journey is full of heart, humor, and second chances.
