The Adrian College music department will host the fifth annual Invitational Choral Festival in the Adrian College Chapel on Sunday, Oct. 17 at 3 p.m. (Doors will open at 2:45 p.m.) This free concert will feature several local high schools, including Adrian, Tecumseh, South Lyon, Warren Woods Tower and Bedford, as well as the choirs of Adrian College. Each choir will perform two selections.

The adjudicator for the festival is Eugene Rogers, who is currently a visiting instructor at the University of Michigan. In addition to a very successful teaching record in the public schools, Rogers has worked with the Glen Ellyn Children's Chorus, the University of Michigan Men's Glee Club, and the University Choir. He has also served as the artistic director and conductor of the Boys Choir of Harlem.

At the choral festival, you will have the opportunity to hear each of the choirs perform their selections and then watch as Professor Rogers takes them to the next level. Join us for a wonderful opportunity to hear some of the best high school choirs in our area. This concert is free and open to the public. The Adrian College Chapel is located on Charles Street.
