RECENT
EVENTS!
The Morgan State
University Choir returned home to Baltimore on Tuesday,
June 15, 2010 from a ten-day, five-concert tour of China
that took the group to four cities. The choir performed
first in Beijing, on the evening of June
8th
in a
collaborative concert with the Beijing Wuzi University
Choir. From there, the world renowned Morgan choir traveled
to Tianjin for a concert in the city's premier music hall
to an even more enthusiastic crowd. Next was the Choir's
participation in the Qujiang Xi'an International Youth
Festival in the brand new Xi'an Concert Hall. The
festival's closing ceremony was held the following day in
an outdoor venue on Purple Cloud Mountain.
The choir's final day in China was especially thrilling for
the students who had the opportunity to sing at a World's
Fair - the Shanghai World Expo. The MSU choir was featured
in performance twice at the American Pavilion, representing
the United States in song. "It was the perfect way to end a
very memorable experience in China for our students," says
choir director Eric Conway.

believe that I have now heard the voice of God!" comments
an older Prague woman after hearing the Morgan State
University Choir for the first time.
