Upon recommendation from our panel of applied teachers, advanced singers are selected to perform in Bailey Hall to showcase their talent. Repertoire ranges from Handel to Hoiby and Bach to Bernstein in this gala evening for friends and family accompanied by our professional collaborative pianists. These singers have the opportunity to coach with visiting professional artists such as Metropolitan Opera Mezzo Soprano, Jennifer Larmore as well as artists from the Atlanta Opera. We are proud of the high level of singing and technical training that is a hallmark of our KSU Voice Department, and we are pleased to be able to offer this wonderful evening of vocal music to the public.
