University Singers tour Vietnam
During the summer of 1999 the University Singers, the highly acclaimed undergraduate choir directed by Dr. André Thomas, spent two weeks on a concert tour of Vietnam. They performed two concerts in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City each. The tour was a great success and a huge opportunity for the members of the University Singers.
For a wonderful presentation of pictures and experiences from our trip to Vietnam, please see Alva's web site, Twelve Days in May: With the University Singers. Thank you, Alva!
