One of Elon’s choral groups, Camerata (above), will be performing in Whitley Auditorium on Saturday. The group is presenting a program from its recent European tour. While in Vienna, Austria, Prague and the Czech Republic over Jan. 20-27, Camerata performed arrangements such as “Ave Maria,” Mozart’s “Ave verum,” “The Fox, the Ape, and the Humble Bee” and Handl’s “Ascendit Deus.” Along with these selections, Camerata will perform “Never Doubt I Love” with a solo by Meredith Betts, “Shady Grove” with Andrew Newson playing dulcimer and “Ain’t-a that Good News.” The group, which performed at Sunday morning Mass at St. Vitus Cathedral in the castle in Prague, will be selling CDs of tour music on Saturday and at all of the choral concerts this semester to offset the costs of the European tour. The CDs are $10 or $8 with an Elon ID.
