St. Norbert College’s Dudley Birder Chorale will present its annual All Saints and Veterans Day concert Friday, Oct. 26, at 7:30 p.m. The concert will take place at the Walter Theatre in the Abbot Pennings Hall of Fine Arts on the college’s campus.
The concert will feature a mix of classical and contemporary pieces, ranging from Mendelssohn’s “Hymn of Praise” to John Williams’ “Hymn to the Fallen.” Guest soloists will include Rita Baretta, local professional singer and St. Norbert College alumna; Yi-Lan Niu, associate professor of music at St. Norbert College; and Tomás Dominguez, local performer and adjunct vocal teacher at UW-Green Bay.

The Dudley Birder Chorale, led by artistic director Kent Paulsen, is a 150-voice choir featuring singers from many walks of life. This is Paulsen’s first season leading the chorale. He succeeds founder Dudley Birder, who retired in May and is now the artistic director emeritus.
