November 10 2018 – Tallahassee Community Chorus, Junior League of Tallahassee and Nancy Dignon

Play

In the days leading up to the arrival of Hurricane Michael, Meteorologist and Tallahassee Community College Meteorology Professor Nancy Dignon provided our community with invaluable insight and updated information using her Facebook platform. Well known to the Tallahassee area, having served as a broadcast meteorologist with local tv stations, Nancy is highly respected for her ability to bring complex information to her audience in a manner that is immediately comprehensible. Nancy will talk with Brien about her early concerns when Michael was yet a tropical storm and provide us further understanding as to the un-duplicated manner in which Michael increased to hurricane force in a short period of time before making landfall.

Tallahassee Community Chorus celebrates its 31st season with their opening performance entitled EXULTATION! featuring Bach’s Magnificat in D Major and Handel’s Messiah.

In the wake of recent tragic events, Tallahassee will find great solace in this inspiring performance of this magnificent 300-voice world-renowned chorus under the direction of Artistic Director Dr. Andre J. Thomas. The show is scheduled for Sunday November 28 at 4:00pm at Ruby Diamond Concert Hall. Tickets can be purchased HERE.
