Lune Noire with YPCC 10/24 @ Memorial Hall

Get ready for an unforgettable evening of musical enchantment as the Young Professionals' Choral Collective (YPCC) presents "Lune Noire" at the historic Memorial Hall together with Artistic Partner Queen City Cabaret featuring local music phenoms Matthew Umphreys and Sarah Folsom. Directed by Matthew Moquin-Lee and accompanied by Matthew Umphreys, the YPCC Lune Noire repertoire includes nighttime harmonies from the last century. Audience members will be transported to classic nightclubs with familiar tunes including ‘Sing, Sing, Sing’ and ‘Moon River.’ The dream world will emerge with Rhineberger’s lullaby, 'Abendlied,' and calls to dream of more with ‘Dream a Little Dream’ and U2’s reflective ‘MLK.’ With the uplifting melodies of ‘Somewhere Over the Rainbow,’ ‘Beginning to See the Light,’ and ‘Unclouded Day,’ woven throughout the evening, audience members will experience the light that shatters darkness. YPCC artistic partner Queen City Cabaret will further captivate the audience with vintage jazz tunes that include beloved classics such as 'Beginning to See the Light' (Duke Ellington) and 'Dream a Little Dream' (Andrew/Schwandt), mixed with contemporary works, including 'Make You Feel My Love' (Bob Dylan, Adele).
