Jennifer Summy to Perform with Lebanon Valley College Chamber Choir at State Music Conference

2017 Oct 5

Jennifer Summy of Duncannon, Pa., will perform with the Lebanon Valley College Chamber Choir at the American Choral Directors Association (ACDA) conference at Susquehanna University on Nov. 11. Summy, a graduate of Susquenita Junior/Senior High School, is pursuing a bachelor of arts in music business and music at The Valley.

The choir was one of our regional choral groups selected from an application process which consisted of sending in sample pieces of the choir's work to a panel board of directors.

"The ACDA is a professional organization that serves choral directors in all walks of life, whether they are middle school, elementary school, high school, college, community, or church choirs," said Dr. Matt Erpelding, assistant professor of music and director of choral activities at LVC. "They hold several conferences throughout the year, and this happens to be the state conference that we are attending."

"It is a lovely honor to be recognized by peers for the work that your students are doing," said Dr. Erpelding. "I am really excited for the choir to be on that stage and that they get to share their music with an appreciative and well-informed audience. In all, the whole thing is quite humbling."
