Sunrise Mass: Mercer University Singers and Robert McDuffie Center for Strings at Stern Auditorium/Perelman Stage, Carnegie Hall
Experience Mercer University and the Robert McDuffie Center for Strings’ world-class music programs as they dazzle Carnegie Hall.

Mercer University's Stanley L. Roberts and Amy Schwartz Moretti collaborate on a program highlighting classical and contemporary compositions in collaboration with guest conductor Paul Watkins from the Emerson Quartet. The ensemble includes 130 singers from the Mercer University Singers, alumni, faculty, and friends, and 51 string players, including members of the Philadelphia Orchestra, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, and Minnesota Orchestra. This evening's highlight is the enchanting "Sunrise Mass" by Ola Gjeilo, a four-movement work for choir and strings. The Robert McDuffie Center for Strings, directed by Amy Moretti Schwartz, will perform Bartók's "Divertimento for String Orchestra" conducted by Paul Watkins. The concert will mark the World Premiere of Mack Wilberg's new piece "From the Frontier - Three American Folk Tunes."
