The Homestead High School Choirs will present a very special concert of a cappella music on Wednesday evening, January 14th at 7PM in the Homestead High School James Barr Auditorium. The free presentation will feature the Highlander, Treble, and Tartan Choirs, as well as the co-curricular Camerata.  The hour-long program will include a diverse variety of music by composers Giovanni Gastoldi, Johannes Brahms, Tzvi Avni, William Byrd, Miss M. Durham, and more.  A cappella vocal jazz arrangements will add intriguing rhythmic elements to the program, and all the choirs will join together to perform a traditional spiritual in a choral arrangement by Moses Hogan to bring the program to a rousing conclusion.
