DESCRIPTION:Experience an evening of extraordinary choral music as musicians from across UCF take the stage. This performance brings together over a hundred voices and the power of a live wind ensemble for a two-part musical journey--traveling from the majestic traditions of the English cathedral to the heart-pounding rhythms of American Gospel.\n\nPart I: The Grand Opening - Rutter's Mass of the Children\n\nThe concert begins with a monumental collaboration. Under the direction of Dr. Kelly Miller, the UCF SoAL, TeBa, and UCF Community Choirs join forces with the UCF Wind Ensemble to perform John Rutter's Mass of the Children. This masterful work is celebrated for its soaring melodies and rich, symphonic textures, offering a vibrant and uplifting start to the evening that highlights the beauty of intergenerational harmony.\n\nPart II: The Spirit of Heritage - Light, Love, and Gospel\n\nFollowing intermission, the energy shifts as the University Singers and Chamber Choir, led by Dr. Jeffery Redding, present a program of profound depth and celebration. The second half explores the brilliant "light" of modern choral music before transitioning into a powerful tribute to heritage and hope:\n\n  * Contemporary Classics: The ethereal, shimmering sounds of Eric Whitacre's Water Night and movements from Elaine Hagenberg's Illuminare.\n  * Romantic Mastery: Timeless selections from Mendelssohn's Elijah and the stirring "I Lift Mine Eyes."\n  * The Finale: A high-energy celebration of Black History Month, featuring soul-stirring Gospel selections and tributes to the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. This climactic finish promises to leave the audience inspired, uplifted, and on their feet.\n\n\n\nFeatured Ensembles\n\n  * University Singers & Chamber Choir (Dr. Jeffery Redding, Conductor)\n  * UCF SoAL, TeBa, & Community Choir (Dr. Kelly Miller, Conductor)\n  * The UCF Wind Ensemble\n\n\n\nProgram Highlights\n\n  * John Rutter: Mass of the Children\n  * Elaine Hagenberg: Illuminare (Movements)\n  * Eric Whitacre: Water Night\n  * Felix Mendelssohn: Selections from Elijah\n  * Tributes: Celebration of the African American Choral Tradition and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.\n\n\n\nStudent tickets: $20 with code knightcta26, valid UCF or student ID required.\nRegistration Link: https://www.drphillipscenter.org/events/tickets/2026/ucf-a-journey-of-voice-and-soul/\nRegistration Info: Tickets: $25; Student tickets: $20 with code knightcta26, valid UCF or student ID required.
