From: Program 502 of In Performance at the Governor’s Mansion
Length: 00:07:42
Description:
1999-2001 alumni of the Kentucky Governor’s School for the Arts Chorus perform “Ave Verum Corpus” and “Veni Sancte Spiritus” in this excerpt from In Performance at the Governor’s Mansion Program 502. The performance was taped at the Glema Mahr Center for the Arts in Madisonville, Kentucky. In Performance at the Governor’s Mansion is an annual KET series showcasing the depth and breadth of outstanding Kentucky artists and arts groups. Most performances are taped in the Governor’s Mansion ballroom, but some programs are taped in larger venues to accommodate groups requiring larger spaces in which to perform. Featured performers have ranged from Kentucky’s national treasures, such as Rosemary Clooney and Lionel Hampton, to the state’s premier performing arts organizations and from local and regional musical acts in all genres to poets, actors, and young people.
