“Magical Mystery Tour : An Evening with the Beatles” Bishop’s University Singers with the participation of the Champlain Singers

The Bishop’s University Singers are in the final rehearsal stages for their end of semester concert “Magical Mystery Tour : An Evening with the Beatles” on December 1st and 2nd at Centennial Theatre. Tickets are still available for the Saturday afternoon show on December 2nd at 1:30 p.m. Evening shows on December 1st and 2nd are currently sold out.

Under the direction of Fannie Gaudette and Jamie Crooks, the Bishop’s University and Champlain College-Lennoxville choirs will unite for a second year to deliver a tour of over twenty-five of the Fab Four’s greatest hits;  from the enigmatic Across the Universe to the lively Yellow Submarine.  150 singers of all generations, united by a love of the Fab Four, will take the stage backed by a 12 piece band of top professional musicians (Mathieu Désy, Alex Cattaneo, Olivier Hébert, Philippe Dunnigan, Robert-Étienne Siméon, among others).

The vast Beatles’ catalogue provides a range of styles and will allow over 35 voices to showcase as soloists, part of small groups while dancers enhance the mix.

An event to be experienced by the whole family and where the audience will need little convincing to join in for a chorus or two of the soundtrack of their lives.
