为了纪念黑人历史月，爱荷华中央社区学院的声乐团体将举办一个令人振奋的音乐之夜，举办一年一度的黑人历史月音乐会。

演出将于2月16日星期五晚上7点在福特博物馆歌剧院举行。

The concert will feature each of the four vocal performance ensembles: Concert Choir, Encore Singers, Pop Voices, and Vocal Jazz performing both familiar and not so well-known spiritual and folk tunes along with gospel and pop favorites.

Some of the musical selections include a gospel version of the traditional hymn “His Eye is on the Sparrow;” gospel tune “He Never Failed Me Yet,” featuring a favorite guest soloist The Rev. Eric Howard, who has made several appearances with Iowa Central choirs over the years; a modern arrangement of Ben E. King’s hit song “Stand By Me” which was made famous during the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle; and “Stand Up,” the theme song from the movie “Harriet.” The concert will close with a thrilling A Capella arrangement of the gospel jam “Total Praise.”

音乐会免费入场，歌剧院接受自愿出价。
