The “wandering choir” of Chorus Peregrinus returns to Dalton State
College with a holiday program of sacred choral music in a free concert
Thursday evening, Nov. 29.
The chorus of adult singers from Chattanooga, Dalton, and
Chatsworth will sing in the Goodroe Auditorium of Gignilliat Memorial
Hall at 7:30 p.m.
Chorus Peregrinus was established in 1993 by Bert Landman who, at the
time, was a Dalton organist/pianist, composer, vocal coach and
choirmaster. Camilla Springfield of Chatsworth has been the conductor
since 2005. Ms. Springfield, a lifelong Murray County resident, is
retired from the Murray County School System where she taught chorus,
English, and guitar. She currently serves as choirmaster for St. Mark’s
and has sung since 1985 with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Chorus and
Chamber Choir.
Repertoire for the choir ranges from chant and Renaissance music
to 21st century choral music, including original works by chorus founder
Bert Landman.
