Fredonia Chamber Singers Reunion slated for this weekend
A special weekend-long reunion for Fredonia Chamber Singers alumni is scheduled on campus for Nov. 4 to 6. The event will bring together alumni to honor Dr. Donald Lang and Betsy Dixon-Lang, ’84, to reminisce, and to participate in a Reunion Concert on Sunday, Nov. 6, at 1 p.m., in Rosch Recital Hall.
The concert is free, but there will be an opportunity to contribute to the Lang Scholarship.
The chamber singers, under the direction of Dr. Lang, concerted and toured the U.S. and abroad from 1982-2010.
Other events during the weekend include a reception at the White Inn on Friday evening, an afternoon and evening at the College Lodge on Saturday, and a “Town Hall” meeting on Saturday evening.
There is a Facebook group for the reunion: “Chamber Singer Reunion.” Alumni are urged to join the group to get day-to-day updates, share stories and post pictures.
The “Town Hall” meeting on Saturday night at the lodge will be an open forum session where alumni can tell stories, give remembrances, and have small ensembles from years past perform. The small groups must be coordinated ahead of time by alumni. There will be time on Friday after registration and before the opening address/pizza party for access to practice rooms.
Adam MacDonald, ’88, who majored in Music Performance/Music Education and is originally from Orchard Park, is the major organizer of the event.
