The Augsburg Centennial Singers
Sunday
October 21, 2007
4:00 P.M.
The Augsburg Centennial Singers take the stage performing
uplifting music in the gospel quartet tradition.
Reflecting the gospel
quartet tradition at Augsburg College, the mission of the Augsburg
Centennial Singers is to present concerts that personalize a Christian
faith and encourage listeners to establish and deepen a relationship
with Jesus Christ, and to provide a fellowship for men who find joy in
singing songs that have musical excellence, address the heart and
reflect a variety of musical traditions. Formed in 1993 to commemorate
the 100th anniversary of the first gospel quartet to travel
to Norway from Augsburg College, the Singers present concerts annually
in Minnesota, have toured Norway twice, and also performed in Arizona
and Florida. They are led by Director Al Reesnes, along with Paul
Christensen, assistant director/accompanist. For this program, the
group has chosen such music as “We’ve a Story to Tell to the Nations,”
“The Power of God,” “At the River,” “The End of the Road,” and many
more. A free-will offering will be collected at this concert.
