A group of students wearing crimson choir robes standing among tall wild blades of grass serves as inspiration for this week’s photo series.
A performance by the Oberlin Gospel Ensemble was seen by members of the Oberlin community and heard throughout Tappan Square on a warm Sunday afternoon. The outdoor concert, conducted by Associate Professor of Jazz Voice La Tanya Hall, was one of several instrumental and voice performances that took place on campus since the start of May.
In this week’s photo series we attend performances by student jazz ensembles, the Oberlin College Choir, the Oberlin Trombone Choir, Collegium Musicum, the Oberlin Chamber Singers, and end with a stop at Folk Fest 2021.
