The Nebraska Choir Arts Society’s Bel Canto Choir will present the final Music as Medicine concert of the season today at noon in the Durham Outpatient Center West Atrium.
Bel Canto (Italian for “beautiful singing”) is the most advanced ensemble within the Nebraska Children’s Chorus. Bel Canto is a tour choir and performs frequently with the Omaha Symphony Orchestra and comparable organizations.
The ensemble’s annual repertoire includes approximately 40 memorized works in as many as eight languages. Bel Canto’s performances are noted for their special sonority and meticulous tuning, as well as distinctive literature and commitment to the composer’s intent.
The concert is sponsored by the College of Medicine.
