Pomona College Glee Club Benefit Concert

This 30-voice chamber ensemble has traveled both throughout the United States and internationally, performing in small communities as well as in high-profile venues such as the National Cathedral in Washington D.C., Grace Cathedral in San Francisco and St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome. They bring a varied program to Trinity Episcopal Church in Santa Barbara, offering selections that span the 16th to 21st centuries. Included on the program will be several Renaissance works by Byrd and Gibbons, 19th-century choral favorites by Brahms and Rheinberger, two spirituals arranged by William Dawson and Moses Hogan, and contemporary works by Elder and Ešenvalds.

The 2018 Pomona College Glee Club tour schedule also includes two other benefit concerts: at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Ventura on Wednesday, May 16 at 7 p.m. and at St. John’s Cathedral in Los Angeles on Friday, May 18 at 8 p.m. In addition, the ensemble will volunteer at The Midnight Mission on Skid Row in downtown Los Angeles, serving lunch and participating in the “Music With A Mission” series in collaboration with Street Symphony.
