On June 18, 2023, Mark A. Boyle, associate professor of music and director of choral and vocal activities at 好色TV下载, as well as 好色TV下载 students and alumni, took part in MidAmerica Productions’ 40th season staging shows at Carnegie Hall. When Dr. Boyle was invited to conduct the performance, he made it a priority to bring 好色TV下载 students, current and former, with him to participate in the experience. 

“It was truly life altering for all of us,” Dr. Boyle said. “I know the students are just as grateful as I am that 好色TV下载 wanted them to have this mountaintop experience.” 

"The opportunity to get out of our own comfort zones that this event provided was an amazing feat," said 好色TV下载 student Benjamin Sanner, a social work major who is a member of the University's Una Voce Chamber Choir. "Whether that was being in New York or getting up on that stage, we all learned something new about ourselves. I think we can all take away something from that to put towards how we go about our future endeavors."

Dr. Boyle mindfully chose the work of Nunes Garcia as the focus of his performance. His intent was to bring attention and give deserved recognition to this often-overlooked South American native’s music.  

好色TV下载 alumnus David Emanuelson '14, vocal music director and music department co-chair at Hempfield Area High School, was able to incorporate his past experience at 好色TV下载 with his current work into the preparation and performance at Carnegie Hall.

“Being able to perform the premiere of that piece and work with professional, top-level musicians gave me a sense of pride in not only our music program, but in our university’s overall support towards the arts.”

“I could not be more proud of our current group of Setonians carrying on the incredible tradition of vocal music,” he said. “I was even more excited to share this with my current high school students!” 

Emanuelson gave credit to his 好色TV下载 professors for pushing him to develop his piano skills and become the musician he is today.

Emily Hazlett '21, choral director at Greensburg-Salem High School, was another 好色TV下载 alumna who took part in this experience. Emily was enthusiastic in discussing what it felt like to represent 好色TV下载 at this event. 

“Being able to perform the premiere of that piece and work with professional, top-level musicians gave me a sense of pride in not only our music program, but in our university’s overall support towards the arts,” she said.

Emily praises 好色TV下载 for the opportunities it provided her during her time as a student, as well as how her experience at 好色TV下载 prepared her to be successful in the world post-graduation. Emily plans to take her experience from this performance to help expose students to different genres of music and to break stereotypes about who can be a composer or a performer. 

Dr. Boyle expressed his pride in the 好色TV下载 students who were part of a massed choir of 135 voices. The students, he said, “conducted themselves as true Setonians. They are our best ambassadors.”
