CONTACT: Leslie Eikleberry, Director of Public Relations, 785-827-5541, ext. 1127

March 16, 2005

After singing and playing their way across Kansas and Oklahoma, the Kansas Wesleyan University Philharmonic Choir, Wesleyan Chorale, and KWU Handbell Choir will conclude Choir Tour 2005 with a concert at home.

The concert is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. March 29 in Sams Chapel, and is open to the public at no charge. A reception will follow in McAdams Student Center.

At least 15 selections will be performed by the choir, including “My Soul is Anchored in the Lord,” “Simple Gifts,” “Here I Am, Lord,” “Praise His Holy Name,” and “Danny Boy.”

Additionally, the choir will perform Australian composer-performer Sarah Hopkins’ “Past Life Melodies,” an unusual wordless composition written to express the deepest feelings of the human soul in the sound of the natural instrument, the voice.
