Wilmington College Winter Concert

Wilmington College will observe the Christmas and holiday season with its annual Winter Concert featuring the College Chorale, Quaker Jazz Ensemble, and Symphonic Winds on Dec. 5, at 7:30 p.m., in Heiland Theatre. The event is free of charge.

The Chorale, under the direction of Christopher Smith, will perform a mixture of choral styles, from the Nigerian hymn, “Betelehemu,” and Bernice Johnson Reagon’s spiritual, “I Got Shoes,” to a number popularized by the group, Pentatonix, and voted on by members, “Mary, Did You Know?” The instrumental groups, which are conducted by Evan Hatter, will perform music composed by Vaughan Williams, Jimmy Van Heusen, Duke Ellington, Frank Mantooth, and Billy Strayhorn, among others.
