#COLLEGECHOIR & VOCALe

The SCC Choirs have a rich history of choral music education and performance that started in 1968. Clive Mefford ('68-70) and Doreen Irwin ('77-13) are some of the notable SCC choral professors who have help shaped our current program. The ensembles have traveled and performed in seventeen different countries and have participated twice in performing masterworks at Carnegie

This past Thursday, we had our artist's recital! Daniel Ostrom, our vocal program's mentor and one of the most critical students we have in our department, performed a themed repertoire around love and death that was absolutely moving. It was presented by our vocal program director, Daniel Paulson, seen in this post with Ostrom and our fabulous accompanist, Paul Salzberg. They all made it happen, showed up, and showed out for someone our department loves and is honored to have among us, along with all our wonderful attendees. Thank you to all who attended and made this happen, it was a wonderful event!

Hello Sacramento! This Friday, December 12th from 7:00-9:00pm at our theater in PAC 150, we're having our Festival of Music. This festival will be featuring SCC's Choral Ensemble, our applied music students, faculty, and invited high school students performing an assortment of musical pieces we've been perfecting all semester. The choir is performing things from improvisatory pieces created from handbells and our choir's gorgeous voices, to a number of contemporary pop hits arranged for a choral setting, and even a traditional Hungarian folk song! Our applied students, along with our faculty and invited high school students, will be performing a number of solo and instrumental pieces from their repertoire they've been building this year.

Its $20 for general admission, and $10 for student admission. Our music department would greatly appreciate your support in this endeavor, as we've been working quite hard at this all semester.

Link in bio for tickets, we hope to see you there!

Hey Sac City College! After this upcoming Thanksgiving break, our Vocal Choral program has a lot of events coming up. All of them are free (except where noted), so there's no reason not to come! We got 7 musical events on our calendar, and any and all attendance would be greatly appreciated by our working students and staff. Even if you only come to one event that you can make, we'd be ecstatic to see you there. All links are on the attached Eventbrite page, please RSVP or buy tickets in advance. We hope to see you there!

Some of our very talented Tenor section knew they wouldn't have time to practice together over Thanksgiving Break, but here they are doing an impromptu rehearsal to make sure they're on top of everything for our upcoming Choir Exchange and Festival of Music. If you like what you hear, come to our events on Dec. 2nd and Dec. 12th!
