Virginia Choral Fest - 2024
Thirty-nine members of SVCC's Concert Choir engaged in both musical and social activities as they participated in Virginia Choral Fest during the week of June 25-29. The festival was a collaboration of three choirs: the Shenandoah Valley Children's Choir, directed by Dr. Janet Hostetter; the Roanoke Valley Children's Choir, directed by Ms. Kimberly Davidson; and the Virginia Children's Chorus, directed by Ms. Corbin Thomas Pinto. On June 26, the three choirs performed individually and then collectively under the direction of Dr. John Irving at Christopher Newport University. The following day, the choirs performed the same concert as a benefit for Norfolk's Street Choir Project at the Basilica of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception in Norfolk, Virginia. In addition to these performances, SVCC choristers enjoyed singing in and exploring Colonial Williamsburg, being entertained at Busch Gardens, and rafting on the James River.
