Callaway Singers to benefit Honor Flight

The Callaway Singers will be holding their concert "An American Tribute" on Sunday, May 5 at 2 p.m. in Dulany Auditorium on the William Woods University campus. An additional concert will be held on Thursday, May 9 at 7:00 p.m. in the same location.

"We chose to have two concerts because the past two we've had have been standing room only," Marlene Railton, director of the Callaway Singers said. "So we decided to add the matinee for people who might not like to drive at night."

Following the title of the concert, the songs performed will follow a patriotic theme that focuses on music from the 1940s. Songs featured will include "I'll be Seeing You," and "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy." The concert will be comprised of a series of solos, trios, vingettes, and group performances.

"The last song we do is a patriotic theme of all five branches of the armed forces," Railton added.
