Wesleyan Singers Perform at Carnegie Hall (04-26-2018)
Virginia Wesleyan Singers, led by Assistant Professor of Music Bryson Mortensen, have returned from their travels to New York City after performing at one of the world's most famous concert venues—Carnegie Hall. They performed alongside choirs from across the country, including some very close to home—Great Bridge United Methodist Church Choirs from Chesapeake and the Tallwood High School Choir from Virginia Beach. An encore performance of their Carnegie Hall concert is scheduled for Saturday April 28, at 7:30 p.m. at Great Bridge United Methodist Church (). Admission is free and open to all.
