The celebrated Susquehanna University Choir, under the direction of Christopher Hoster, will perform at locations throughout the Northeast on its annual spring break tour March 10-18.

Concerts are free and open to the public.

The itinerary includes performances in Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Massachusetts, including a concert at Boston’s historic Old North Church, where in 1775 two steeple lanterns signaled to Paul Revere that the British were approaching by sea.

The 42-member University Choir tours each spring and presents a varied program of classical and contemporary music. The University Chamber Singers, a versatile group of 16 musicians, will perform a segment of the concert as well.
