A Requiem in Concert

The ESU Music Department presented their Spring Choral Concert on Wednesday April 28th in The Cecilia S. Cohen Recital Hall which is located in The Fine and Performing Arts Building on the campus of East Stroudsburg University of PA (ESU). The evening began with a performance by The University A Cappella Ensemble who presented several selections and continued with The Concert Choir and Orchestra performing Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s “Requiem.” Numerous music lovers attended the event as the classical pieces conducted by Prof. James Maroney filled the recital hall and the corridors of the soul.

Among those who lent their talents to the evening included Laura Goss, Marta Oberlin, Richard Chamberlain, Jim Daniels, Patrick Dorian, Agnieszka Rybska, David Lantz, Jr., Elizabeth Buzzelli-Clark, Tara Nylander, Connie Papillion, Brian Foley, Arline M. Smeltz, Michael Kessler, Jennifer Kroll, Laura Wall, Timothy Oesterle, and Dr. Ottis French. The voices and other musical instruments flowed together throughout the performance which was well received by all who were present.
