CrosSING Bridges

Three unique musical traditions combine for one extraordinary performance. Begins at 7PM.

About the event

CrosSING Bridges is a one-of-a-kind concert experience that brings together three culturally distinct choruses — the Heritage Gospel Chorale, Coro Latinoamericano, and MCP — as they share their own unique musical traditions with audiences. Join us as we embark on a journey celebrating rich African American sacred choral music and gospel music; choral music from the countries of Central and South America, the Caribbean, and the Iberian Peninsula; and symphonic choral music in the in the Western European classical tradition. The audience will be invited to sing-along during a portion of the concert.
