Inaugural evening concert to be broadcast from London

On Tuesday, January 20 at 8 p.m CST, commemorate America's historic Inauguration Day with a VocalEssence concert of American choral classics recorded earlier that day in London as part of the ensemble's tour of England.

In addition to choral masterworks spanning three centuries, the VocalEssence Ensemble Singers will unveil charming new lyrics to the tune of "My Country 'Tis of Thee," penned by Garrison Keillor especially for the the occasion. The audience will be invited to sing along.

The concert, taking place at St. John’s, Smith Square, London will be recorded for broadcast on Minnesota Public Radio the same evening in Minnesota. Minnesota Public Radio classical music host and producer John Birge, who is traveling with the Ensemble Singers, will produce the concert broadcast.
