Augustana Ensemble Will Sing in China

Augustana College
The A Team from Augustana College

The "A Team" leaves for China on Tuesday. The ensemble from Augustana College's Chamber Singers will perform in an international music festival, and sing in four concerts, two in Shanghai and two in Nanjing.

The A Team is led by Doctor Jon Hurty, director of choral activities at Augustana.

In addition to the formal concerts, they'll have the opportunity to meet and sing with choirs from China and other countries from around the world.
 
 

A native of Detroit, Herb Trix began his radio career as a country-western disc jockey in Roswell, New Mexico (“KRSY, your superkicker in the Pecos Valley”), in 1978. After a stint at an oldies station in Topeka, Kansas (imagine getting paid to play “Louie Louie” and “Great Balls of Fire”), he wormed his way into news, first in Topeka, and then in Freeport Illinois.
