Kuei-Jhu Chen is a seasoned conductor pursuing his doctorate in choral conducting at the University of Utah School of Music. We are thrilled to have this experience working with him for this concert which is one of his doctoral recitals. The 90-voice Choral Arts Society of Utah, founded in 1987 continues to perform a variety of concerts here along the Wasatch Front and abroad.

This concert is a great opportunity for students who need concert attendance for credit from local high schools to attend a free, high-quality classical concert in the beautiful Libby Gardner Concert Hall at the University of Utah. A small orchestra will accompany the choir in their performance of the "Requiem in D minor, Op. 48 by Gabriel Fauré.  The choir, with accompanist Misty Jensen will also perform three additional choral pieces to round out the concert.
