Two of the most well known are “The Road Not Taken” and “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening.” Other selections on the program include “Cantique de Jean Racine” by Gabriel Faure; “Bring a Torch, Jeannette, Isabella” arranged by Alice Parker and Robert Shaw; and “Lo, How a Rose E’er Blooming” with music by Michael Praetorius and Jan Sandstrom. The chorus is accompanied by Kellie Moody.
