The Spelman College Glee Club
The Spelman College Glee Club’s latest concert was a nice display of musical excellence, showcasing the rich tradition of choral performance at Spelman. the concert featured someclassical pieces to spirituals and contemporary selections. The Glee Club, known for its precision and emotional depth, captivated the audience with harmonious vocals and intricate arrangements. Under the direction of Dr. Kevin Johnson, the ensemble delivered powerful renditions that reflected both their technical skill and deep connection to African American musical heritage. Highlights of the evening included a moving performance of traditional spirituals, which resonated with the audience and emphasized the historical significance of the Glee Club’s legacy. The concert not only celebrated the talent and dedication of the students but also underscored Spelman’s commitment to artistic expression and cultural preservation. Also I’m a BIG Kristen Chenowith fan so seeing her so inspired by us was very cool.
Also, It was very cool to see the techniques or instruments we talked about in class being used in real life. I feel like before, I would hear music. Now I understand it, and it’s like I’m listening to everything again for the first time because I know what I’m listening for.
