PSU Chamber Singers to bring international voices to Wolfeboro

PLYMOUTH — The Plymouth State University Chamber Singers will return to the Wolfeboro stage on Sunday, Feb. 3. The concert will be held at the First Congregational Church, 115 S. Main St., at 2 p.m.

“The Chamber Singers have delighted audiences around the world, and we are looking forward to wonderful performance of eclectic and entertaining music,” said Carl Crosley, president of the Wolfeboro Friends of Music, the group hosting the event.

The Chamber Singers are an elite group of PSU students majoring in music or theater. They have performed throughout the U.S., Canada, England, South Africa, Vietnam, Italy, Chile, and North Korea. The Wolfeboro concert will immediately follow their most recent tour in Puerto Rico.

He is active as a guest conductor and clinician around the world. Dr. Perkins is co-founder and music director of the New Hampshire Master Chorale and Chamber Orchestra, music director of the Manchester Choral Society and Orchestra, principal guest conductor and director of choral activities for the New Hampshire Music Festival, and pianist for the Trio Veritas. 

The Chamber Singers perform music of all periods and styles. Selections will range from classical to contemporary. The concert is sponsored by Paul and Debbie Zimmerman, J. Clifton Avery Insurance Company, and the Taylor Community. It is the fifth of eight events presented by the Wolfeboro Friends of Music; running September through May.
