Bethany
Lutheran Church
, 302 North Birch Street
in Wenona will host the Midland Lutheran College Choir when they present a
concert at the church on March 23 at 7
PM. The concert is free and
open to the public.
The Choir is comprised of students from all across the
country, with a wide variety of academic majors. What they share in common is their passion
for music. Their a cappella choral style
concentrates on singers blending their voices for maximum balance, tonal
smoothness and harmony. Pastor Craig
Swenson, a former Midland Choir member will join them when they perform
“Beautiful Savior”.
James Elsberry, Assistant Professor of Music, has been
directing the choir since 1976. He is
known throughout the Midwest as a composer,
arranger and musical theatre director. In 2005, he was inducted into the
Nebraska Music Educators Association Hall of Fame.
Midland, located in Fremont, Nebraska, is a
four-year, liberal arts and sciences college affiliated with the Evangelical Lutheran
Church in America.
