It was also a great rehearsal before Chamber Singers perform next semester on the Cannon Center stage in Memphis.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At 7:30pm on October 22nd, the Clarksville community will get their first chance this year to hear the University\u2019s talented group of young singers with the concert \u201cChoral Kaleidoscope\u201d in the campus\u2019 Mabry Concert Hall. The concert, which is free and open to the public, will feature all three choral groups performing an eclectic array of music by Mozart and Ren\u00e9 Clausen, as well as the famous 1960s song \u201cMonster Mash.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlthough we\u2019ve performed many times this fall, this is technically our first concert of the season, and it highlights the high level of ensemble music-making at Austin Peay,\u201d Foster said.<\/p>\n<p>Two days after that concert, on October 24th, APSU Choral Activities will host Choir Fest on campus, which brings public school students from Middle Tennessee to APSU to participate in choral singing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re on campus the entire day, their parents come,\u201d Foster said. \u201cIt\u2019s a very important recruiting activity. Plus it gives our music education students an idea of what it\u2019s like to work with high schoolers and middle schoolers all day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The choral program also will host additional performances this November and December. Information on those events will be released in a few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the Choral Kaleidoscope concert, contact Foster at <a href=\"mailto:fosterk@apsu.edu\">fosterk@apsu.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clarksville, TN &#8211; This fall is shaping up to be a busy semester for Austin Peay State University Choral Activities.
