Conductor Kenneth J. Nafziger said prayers and readings from the Psalms will be woven throughout the concert.

“There are very direct biblical psalms with parallels to popular music that explore a common spiritual life,” Nafziger said.

The repertoire will range from introspective and penitential texts, several versions of the Kyrie Eleison, and popular songs that share Lenten themes, including U2’s, “I Still Haven’t Found What I鈥檓 Looking For.”

“It is such a joy to bring our music to the churches and communities that we visit and see the way that our audiences respond to our music,” said Heidi Bauman, a senior at 91短视频. “I am particularly looking forward to singing an arrangement of ‘What Wondrous Love is This’ as well as Mozart’s ‘Laudate Dominum.’鈥�

鈥淜en [Nafziger] always helps us delve deeper into the music and see new ways of interpreting it,鈥� she added. 鈥淭here have been many times in Chamber Singers that I have seen how music can be healing and can bring people together.”
