With an air of mystery, foreboding, and a touch of suspense, the Something Wicked This Way Comes Choir Concert will envelop the Lake Michigan College Mendel Center Jenkins Theatre at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 24.

The free public performance is a collaboration between the LMC Visual & Performing Arts Department and the Michigan Vocal Music Association District 6 Middle School Honors Choir Invitational. It will feature the LMC Vocal Chamber, LMC Concert Choir, and voices of more than 50 top middle school choir students from across the area.

“We are thrilled to present this collaboration with the MSVMA District 6 Middle School Honors Choir Invitational. It promises to be a rich, varied concert experience that explores different facets of the Something Wicked This Way Comes theme, from the ominous to the playfully spooky,” stated Rebecca Derbas-Selvidge, LMC music lecturer and choir director.

The repertoire spans the spectrum of classical, contemporary, folk, and pop adaptations. Among planned selections are “Lacrimosa” from WA Mozart's The Requiem in D minor, K. 626, “Double Trouble” from the movie Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, "Night Vision" by Stephen Chatman, the Tears for Fears modern rock classic “Mad World,” the jazz standard “Old Devil Moon,” and a collaborative performance between the Middle School Honors Choir and LMC Concert Choir of “Glorious,” composed by Masa Fukuda.
