Ohio Wesleyan’s Choral Art Society student group will perform Joseph Haydn’s “Lord Nelson Mass” and original compositions by faculty member Jason Bahr during a free concert at 3:15 p.m. on Sunday, March 28, in Gray Chapel.
An orchestra of student and guest performers also will take part in the concert, which will begin with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s famous Overture to “Le Nozze di Figaro” (the Marriage of Figaro), followed by Haydn’s “Lord Nelson Mass,” which will feature guest soloists Christine Hiester, Marilyn Nims, Dennis Basset, and Daryl Yoder. Ohio Wesleyan assistant professor of music Jason Hiester will conduct the performance.

The concert will be viewable live online or visit Gray Chapel – in Ohio Wesleyan’s University Hall – at 61 South Sandusky Street in downtown Delaware, Ohio.
