OCC Director of Choral Activities Dr. Andrew Pittman and his students will present their 2021 Spring Concert at 7 p.m. April 30 in the Dr. John D. Stull Performing Arts Center.
“I’m looking forward to the concert and I know the students are too,” said Pittman. “It’s a way for the students to show what they have been working on.”
Pittman’s students last performed in December 2019, just prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“I’ve noticed ever since I gave them a concert date, they have been working harder,” he said. “They are sounding really good on our Celebrate mashup from Rare Earth and Three Dog Night and I’m ready to show it off. It will be nice to perform again and to experience music with a live audience.”
While the audience will be limited to just 100 invited guests due to state COVID-19 guidelines, Pittman is planning to livestream the event on the OCC YouTube Channel so it is available to the community.
The concert will feature a mix of familiar pop songs and musical theater numbers spanning from the 1940s to the 2000s. Selections include Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, The Beatles’ When I’m Sixty-Four and the late Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah.
Broadway favorites are Seasons of Love and Will I from Rent, Agony and Agony Reprise from Into the Woods, A Whole New World from Aladdin and I know It’s Today from Shrek: The Musical.
“It’s just some really fun music that everyone will enjoy,” Pittman added. “While these songs are familiar to many of us, the students are just discovering them.”
