Five choruses. Two quartets. Three musical groups. All a cappella.
More than 100 vocalists from Central Michigan University, Mount Pleasant and surrounding communities, and from across the state will join in Acapellapalooza Nine on Sunday, Nov. 10.
Performances begin at 3 p.m. at The Morey Education Center, 380 W. Blanchard Road in Mount Pleasant.
“This concert will be pure energy. Pure fun. Guests are guaranteed to leave smiling,” said Joe McDonald, president of MountainTown Singers, which organizes the event. “It’s an outstanding way to spend a couple of hours on a fall Sunday. You’ll recognize most songs. And love them.”
Admission is free, with goodwill donations benefiting the Care Store at 1114 W. High Street in Mount Pleasant. Affiliated with Community Church, the store provides personal care and household items free of charge to residents in need from across Central Michigan.
“All of the performers are passionate about making our communities better through music,” McDonald said. “It’s in that same spirit that we choose a charity to support through this concert.”
