The Grinnell Singers in Concert

The Grinnell Singers will present a choral concert at 7:00 p.m. Wednesday, March 18 at St. Timothy's Episcopal Church, 808 North Mason Rd.

The Grinnell Singers, the premier choir of Grinnell College in Iowa, will perform in concert Wednesday, March 14 at 7:00 p.m. at St. Timothy’s Episcopal Church, 808 N. Mason Rd. Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for students and seniors, and children are admitted free.

The concert will include a repertoire of music spanning five centuries, with works by Rachmaninoff, Whitacre, Handel and Lassus. The concert will also feature Thomas Tallis’ forty-voice motet “Spem in Alium,” a masterful work in which each singer has a unique part.

Under the direction of John Rommereim, Blanche Johnson Professor of Music at Grinnell College, the Singers have toured to Finland, Estonia, Russia and Turkey. The choir has produced two recordings, including a CD of Rachmaninoff’s “All-Night Vigil,” which was praised for its “consummate artistry” by Iowa Public Radio.
