Grambling, La. – March 27, 2023 – As his birthday approaches on April 3, Grambling State University President asks that in lieu of any gifts to him, any persons wishing to do so should donate to the University Choir.
The Choir has a rich history and tradition dating back to its 1947 origins. The 80-voice ensemble entered a new era and direction last fall as Cordara Harper took over following the retirement of Natorshau Davis.
GSU’s Choir has received positive reviews and attention for its recent performances, starting with the Choir’s 75th-anniversary performance last October.
“Since its inception in 1947, the Grambling State University Choir has played an important role in the musical life of the university,” Gallot said. “As an active touring ensemble, the choir performs extensively on-campus, across the state of Louisiana and beyond. In addition, the choir participates in our recruiting efforts and exposes countless individuals to a world-class choral experience.”
“Our students are why I feel so blessed to be the President of Grambling State University. It is with this in mind that I am using my birthday to gift proceeds of this fundraiser to benefit the University Choir. Your gifts will ensure the continuance of their 75-year legacy. Thank you for your continuous support of Grambling State University and for helping me to celebrate my birthday with your generous donations to the University Choir.”
