\u201cOur concert will reflect our mission to sing sacred music, of styles ranging form Bach to Gospel, with excellence to the glory of God,\u201d said Bach.<\/p>\n
While in New York, the Chorale will also be singing at Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church in Brooklyn (Sunday) and at St. Paul\u2019s Chapel\u2014a church located at the 9\/11 Ground Zero site (Tuesday).<\/p>\n
\u201cThe NCU Chorale represents one of the many excellent opportunities students at NCU have for an outstanding education both inside and outside the classroom,\u201d Bach said.<\/p>\n
Bach noted that the Chorale has sung on the Carnegie stage in the past, as part of mass chorus in 2011, but this will be their first time as a featured group on stage alone. \u201cThis is an excellent honor for us,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
