Never miss a surprise or a concert!
The APO joined with the University of Arkansas Inspirational Chorale for a joyous holiday celebration at the Faulkner Performing Arts Center.
The mission of Inspirational Chorale is to keep the black sacred music tradition alive. And what better way to keep it alive than reuniting after so long apart?
We hope you enjoyed this event as much as did!
The mission of the Inspirational Chorale is to keep the black sacred music tradition alive. The ensemble provides a forum where university students, regardless of ethnicity, can perform the various genres of the tradition. The Inspirational Chorale – as an integrated part of the Department of Music, the academic community, and the community at large – has enjoyed an illustrious reputation while performing for dignitaries and heads of state. The ensemble has made appearances at national and international conferences and has taken international tours to Beijing, China, and Kilkenny, Ireland.
This year, the Inspirational Chorale will also be partnering with special musical guest, Ledisi, a twelve time Grammy nominated powerhouse vocalist with a career spanning almost two decades. Since arriving on the scene in the late 1990's, she's garnered three Soul Train Music awards, an NAACP Theater Award and six NAACP Image Award nominations. Most recently, Ledisi received two LA Alliance Ovation Award nominations one for Best Featured Actress in a Musical.
