Wilson College will host an afternoon of inspiring music as the Cumberland Valley Chorale at Wilson College presents its Spring 2026 concert, On the Edge of Light, on Sunday, April 26, at 3 p.m. in the Alumnae Chapel of Thomson Hall.
The free concert will explore themes of light and darkness, examining human experiences of despair, hope, joy and love through choral music. The program will feature selections from The Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, time tested hymnody and additional works spanning popular, classical, and contemporary traditions.
The concert will also include a performance by Wilson’s a cappella group, the Ten Tones, featuring a new spring set and live selections from the group’s second professional recording session.
The Cumberland Valley Chorale at Wilson College is a community chorus bringing together singers from both the Wilson College campus and the greater Central Pennsylvania region. The ensemble is known for its diverse repertoire and for performing music that reflects faith, laughter, and love.
The event is free and open to the public and is made possible through the generous support of Wilson College.
Community members interested in joining the Cumberland Valley Chorale are welcome. Those interested may contact Dillon Beede, Wilson College director of choral activities, at dillon.beede@wilson.edu for more information.
