From staff reports
The Clover Choraliers will perform a concert in the sanctuary of First Presbyterian Church of Beaufort at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, May 17.
Under the direction of Jay Forrest, Alex Bromell, and Meredith Cornwell, the Choraliers are a 96-member auditioned championship SATB choir hailing from Clover High School in the upstate of South Carolina.
Vic Varner, retired high school choir director and Music Director at First Presbyterian, said of the Clover Choraliers, “I’ve worked with high school choirs for 40 years, I’ve traveled far and wide to hear high school choirs, and I’ve never heard anything like this choir. It’s almost 100 voices, and all of them study voice privately. It is something that will completely mesmerize you.”
The Choraliers will be passing through Beaufort on their way home from Florida, as part of their spring tour. Their repertoire is broad, creative, and guaranteed to please a wide range of tastes. If you love choral music – or any music – this special concert is not to be missed.
First Presbyterian Church is located at the corner of Church and North Streets in downtown Beaufort. Admission is free and the public is welcome. For more information, visit www.cloverchoraliers.com.
