NEXUS presents Chamber Singers at the Nelson

  • Atkins Auditorium, Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

UMKC Chamber Singers will perform music from the classical era in the Bloch Auditorium in the Nelson-Atkins Museum. UMKC’s musicology faculty will share information about the repertoire and an art historian will talk about visual art from the region and time period as well. After the performance, docents will be stationed throughout the European art collection to speak about the visual art. This event runs concurrently to the happy hour in the Bloch lobby.

Combustion, confluence, and convergence in the performing arts; the NEXUS vision is to engage students in innovative and integrated performing arts initiatives that engage music, dance, and theatre within the Conservatory.

Our Villain Era

Our Villain Era: Well-behaved Women Seldom Make History

Kansas City Women’s Chorus

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 2024 – 7PM
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2024 – 7PM

Get ready for a concert filled with inspiration from fierce, courageous, and fearlessly powerful female characters, both fictional and real. Not every “villain” is bad, but it’s best not to test them and find out. The lineup of songs will include notable pieces such as Verdi’s “Witches’ Chorus,” Paul David Thomas’ “Out Damned Spot,” Will Nichols’ “Sea Witch,” Mendelssohn’s “Hexenlied,” and Menken/Huff’s “Badder.” Expect a musical experience that celebrates the strength and complexity of remarkable women everywhere!
