2021-2022 Concert Season:

Follow us on Facebook here.

We're BACK AT IT!!!  Our choral rehearsals have happened regularly in a distanced, masked manner, and we are making great strides.  Check out some of our efforts at www.uwfsingers.com/videos.  Our next appearance will be:

• Friday, November 19 & Saturday, November 20, 7:30pm - CONSIDERING MATTHEW SHEPARD:  The UWF Singers present the Florida premiere of this impactful work by Craig Hella Johnson.  Considering Matthew Shepard is a 90-min. concert work that explores the Matt Shepard story and its effects.  The work is often called a "fusion oratorio" because it blends so many different genres and styles -- from gospel to gregorian chant, from baroque to country, there is something for every palate.  Content Awareness: Some of the material explores the attack, murder, and death of Matt Shepard.  Other moments illustrate the hateful protests that happened in the media around the time of the funeral.  But, other elements are full of joy and light.  

• ​Tuesday, March 1, 7:30pm - COLLABORATIONS!:  The UWF Singers & Concert Choir appear with Navarre High School in the newly re-named Rolfs Music Hall.  Selections include a potpourri of repertoire from the spring festivals and concerts for all 3 groups.  Tickets required.  Free admission.

​

• Thursday, April 21, 7:30pm - SONG OF SURVIVAL:  The UWF Singers, Concert Choir, and newly formed Argo Chorus present music written during WWII and other times of human strength.  Highlights include Benjamin Britten's Rejoice in the Lamb, and Norah Chambers & Margaret Dryburgh's inspirational works for "vocal orchestra"--written whilst in the internment camps on Sumatra.  Rolfs Music Hall.  Tickets Required.  Free admission.
