Verdi’s Requiem: UMS Choral Union Summer Sings

Tonight, participants practice the more difficult parts and, after a break, sing it in its entirety. No auditions required; music provided (or bring your own, if you have it). Sung in Latin. Refreshments. Spectators welcome. Registration at 6:30 p.m. 7–9:30 p.m., Hill Auditorium. $5 sheet music fee at the door only. Spectators free. ums.org/summersings, (734) 763–8997.
