Texarkana Regional Chorale performs at Carnegie Hall
/The Texarkana Regional Chorale performed at Carnegie Hall in New York City on March 19. Led by music director and conductor Marc-André Bougie, the Chorale was joined by the Texarkana College Choir and performed “Requiem,” an original work by Bougie, along with Francis Poulenc’s “Gloria.” This is the Chorale’s fourth Carnegie Hall performance and the “Requiem’s” New York debut.
The trip was a great success with Chorale members enjoying exploring the city. After the performance, members joined other chorales for an evening dinner harbor cruise. The Carnegie Hall show was sponsored by Mid-America Productions, of which Bougie was just named an Honorary Composer/Conductor. He was also named a national finalist for The American Prize in Composition–Major Choral Works for “Requiem.”
