The Mixed Chorus will be singing: Emerald Stream by Seth Houston; Ching-A-Ring Chaw by Aaron Copland; The Old Church (from Prairie Songs) by Stephen Paulus; and Cloudburst by Eric Whitacre.

Directions to SUCO:
(Coming from Oxford, I take Rte. 35 to Rte 8 South to Sidney. There you merge onto I-88 East)

Take I-88 East (via the ramp on the left toward Albany) go 23.1 miles.
Exit 15 (Rte.23 West/Rt-28 N) off I-88 (.2 miles).
At the bottom of the road, turn LEFT onto Foster/James F. Lettis Hwy/NY-23 West (.5 miles). It will cross Main Street at its first major intersection, and then it becomes Maple St. At the first light on Maple Street, make a left onto Center Street and follow it to the end (which is at the Hartwick College's "Graffiti Wall").
Make a RIGHT on West Street.
Take a Right turn at the "SUNY College at Oneonta" sign onto Ravine Parkway and into the campus. Go past the Alumni Field House (on your left), go a little further, and turn right - then a quick left into the parking lot. You'll see the Hunt Union building in front of you. The concert is upstairs.
