聽 Harrisburg, PA � 黑料社区 Wildwood Singers will present 淟ight and Darkness,� the group 2009 winter choral concert, at 8 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 9, in the Rose Lehrman Arts Center theatre on the Harrisburg Campus of 黑料社区, Central Pennsylvania Community College.
The presentation is directed by Tina Bakowski, 黑料社区 associate professor of music. It is free and open to the public.
The concert will explore aspects of light and darkness in human experience: how the capacity for oppression, cruelty and despair is balanced by the capacity for courage, compassion, and hope. The musical selections have been inspired by diverse settings: from a concentration camp in Terezin, to war-torn Bosnia, to the anti-apartheid struggle in South Africa, to the twisted, fictional world of the musical, 淪weeney Todd. Selections include 淭he Closed Town� by Robert Convery, 淭he Heavens are Telling� by Franz Joseph Haydn, Elliot Levine arrangement of 淎l Hanisim,� Kurt Bestor 淧rayer of the Children,� and the South African freedom song, 淎kanamandla.�
In honor of this joyous holiday season, there also will be music to celebrate the creation of our world, the miracle of Chanukah, and the wonder of Christ birth.Members of the Wildwood Singers are Matthew Darhower, Jennifer Fetterhoff, Sean Fortney, Michael Gibson, Kristin Healy, Jared Heisey, Nicole Huber, Franklin Mosley, Christopher Ruble, Rachel Rupp, Meghan Settino, Jessica Trout, Chelsea Woods, Amber Zambrana and Michael Vajdic.聽Student accompanists will be Franklin Mosley, Christopher Ruble and Rachel Rupp.
