MUW Chorale presents spring concert tonight

  
COLUMBUS Miss. -- The MUW Chorale will present a spring concert tonight at 8 p.m. in Poindexter Hall.
   
The performance is a part of several activities scheduled for Homecoming weekend. 
   
Director Tom Jenkins said, “The Chorale will begin the concert with a collection about love and perhaps the lack of it.”
   
The Columbus GirlChoir will take the stage with some favorites, both sacred and secular, and the performance will conclude with “the always powerful Mozart as the Chorale sings, accompanied by strings, movements from `The Solemn Vespers,’ Jenkins said.
   
Peppy Biddy, chair of the Department of Music and Theatre, said, “We are pleased to host the string quartet as part of our Chorale concert. They will add a beautiful and exciting element to the event. The Department of Music and Theatre has been an active and visible part of Homecoming for years. On Friday, we will showcase our choral group, and on Saturday night we will present an encore performance of `The Foreigner.’ I hope all the alums will come see the fantastic work our students are doing."
   
The event is free, but seating is limited.
