On Sunday, November 2 at 7 p.m., the Sea Island Chamber Singers will present a concert of sacred music at Sea Island Presbyterian Church. The program will include music by Willcocks, Haydn, Ferguson, Voullaire, Paulus, Blackwell, Durufle, and Rutter. Charles D. Frost is director of the group. Arthur Tollefson will be the accompanist.
The Chamber Singers are made up of 28 auditioned voices. Some of the singers belong to the Sea Island Church, many are from the Beaufort community. Frost, Minister of Music at the church, started this group six years ago to fill a need in the community. With a select group, he is able to concentrate on more technical issues of vocal technique, sound, and musical interpretation.
As Minister of Music, Frost oversees a full music ministry which consists of children and adult choirs, handbell choirs, and a series of concerts and music programs. He is a graduate of Westminster Choir College of Rider University, Princeton, N.J., where he received both Bachelor and Master of Music degrees. His conducting studies were with Dr. Joseph Flummerfelt, former Head of Choral Studies at the College and Musical Director of the Spoleto Festival in Charleston.
The church is located at 81 Lady’s Island Drive, Beaufort. The public is invited to attend. An offering will be accepted. For more information, contact Mr. Frost at 843-525-0696 or cfrost@seaislandpresbyterian.org
