UCF Celebrates the Arts a Huge Success

What a great week at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts in downtown Orlando!  On Sunday the UCF choirs presented "I Dream A World" , a concert honoring cultures and musical traditions from around the world, ending in a tribute to the American Spiritual and Gospel tradition with guest soloist Sisaundra Lewis.  A packed house and Sisaundra took us all to church!

Tuesday was the UCF Choral Invitational with six middle and high school choirs from the area with guest clinician Derrick Fox from Ithaca College.  The culminating concert featured each of the choirs with their directors, and combined in a performance of my LIVING SONG.

Friday the Chamber Singers collaborated with the University Orchestra, actors from the Prague and Orlando Shakespeare theatres, guest composer Patrick Doyle (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Thor, the Kenneth Brannaugh Shakespeare films) and conductor James Shearman in an evening of "Patrick Doyle's Shakespeare". What a week!
