BYU Spring Chorale plans June 12 concert

The Brigham Young University Spring Chorale will perform Saturday, June 12, at 7:30 p.m. in the Provo Tabernacle, 100 South University Avenue. The event is free.

“This concert will provide a variety of music,” conductor Bryson Mortensen said, “from hymns to folk songs and everything in between.”

The Spring Chorale will begin with “Jubilate Deo” by Benjamin Britten, followed by two prayers, “Lord, For Their Tender Mercy’s Sake” by Richard Farrant and “Verleih Uns Frieden” by Felix Mendelssohn.

The choir will then sing songs about “Old Time Religion” and two familiar hymns. They will also sing two “wordless songs from around the world,” the “Dravidian Dithyramb” by India’s Victor Paranjoti and “Sarba pe scaun” from Romania’s Pascanu.

For more information on the concert, contact Bryson Mortensen at brysonmortensen@gmail.com.
