2017 Feb 22

Daniel Ryan, of Moncks Corner. SC, was one of six Coastal Carolina University music students who won the inaugural Carolina Master Chorale/Coastal Carolina Student Vocal Competition recently. The student winners performed four separate concerts with the Carolina Master Chorale Feb. 10-12 in Pawleys Island, Surfside Beach, Myrtle Beach and North Myrtle Beach.

The students, all BFA musical theatre majors, performed solos from the Broadway and operatic repertoire, with and without chorus. They received standing ovations at each concert.

CCU faculty members Timothy Koch and Daniel Francis serve the Chorale as music director and collaborative pianist, respectively. CCU faculty member Charles Jones Evans (also music director of the Long Bay Symphony); staff pianist D. Scott Ferguson; Housing Services Coordinator Rocken Roll; and Fran Gilbert, retired vice president for development, all performed as members of the Carolina Master Chorale.
