Categories: News Tags: Music

The Charlotteans, the UNC Charlotte Women’s Chorus, will sing the National Anthem for the Charlotte Knights baseball game on Monday, April 16, at the Knights’ BB&T Ballpark. The game, against the Rochester Red Wings, starts at 7:04 pm.

Directed by Ginger Wyrick, The Charlotteans is a Liberal Studies course open to students in any major. For the National Anthem performance, the current chorus will be joined by returning alumni.

“We have created a great adventure out of this opportunity,” said Wyrick. “Traveling uptown on the new Lynx Blue Line extension, we will depart from the campus station around 5:00 pm. We plan to include singing en route to the game, Facebook Live and Instagram posts.”

The Charlotteans will perform an end-of-year concert in the Belk Theater in Robinson Hall on April 28. Tickets are $8 and are available at the Robinson Hall box office.
