Six Students Participate in Intercollegiate Choral Festival

Leanne Siwicki ’15, Leah Stefanelli ’15, Sarah Stewart ’15, Allie Condon ’16, Chelsea Hubert ’17, and Troy Dinga ’17 recently participated in the Pennsylvania Collegiate Choral Association’s intercollegiate choral festival. Students from colleges and universities across Pennsylvania prepared repertoire by Benjamin Britten, Gabriel Fauré, Wendell Whalum, and other composers before gathering at East Stroudsburg University for two days of rehearsal and a public concert. The singers performed under the direction of Peter Bagley, professor emeritus of music at the University of Connecticut. Allegheny’s participants were prepared by Assistant Professor of Music James Niblock and Staff Accompanist Kevin Dill. Niblock also assisted with the preparation of the massed chorus at ESU.
