University Choir always gives a stunning performance.
All the people could say was “Wow” after hearing the concert of the Winston-Salem State University Choir, University Women, University Men and the Burke Singers in a holiday concert at Kenneth R. Williams Auditorium, Sunday, Dec. 6.
It was a performance, anyone who attended, will not soon forget. Dr. Roy L. Belfield, Jr., director of the University Men led that group in performing selections from composers Gadling, Helvey and Kopylow.
The concert featured diversity amongst the soloists within the choirs. Outstanding vocalists included: Juanita Cox, soprano; Rolyndria Anderson, soprano; Travis Spinks, baritone; Brandon Gaines, tenor, just to name a few. The concert also featured former students of the Winston-Salem State University Choirs such as alumna LaShon Hill, mezzo soprano. Ms. Hill shared her extraordinary voice with the Winston-Salem community before she traveled two days later to Vienna, Austria. Other WSSU alumni also participated in this spectacular seasonal concert!
“The audience heard some of their favorite carols, classical choruses, and traditional spirituals and gospels,” Burke said. “What a great way begin the holiday season — with our very own world-renowned choirs.”
Indeed is was. BRAVO!
