The Department of Creative and Festival Arts (DCFA) at The University of the West Indies (UWI) is set to host a spectacular seasonal concert titled ‘Glorious Voices and Steel’ at All Saint’s Anglican Church in Port of Spain on November 29, 2025, at 7 pm. This event, part of the DCFA Legacy Year productions for 2025-2026, will feature the UWI Arts Chorale and Steel performing timeless classical and festive pieces. The program includes Antonio Vivaldi’s renowned choral work ‘Gloria’ and Mozart’s ‘Regina Coeli,’ alongside beloved Christmas favorites. Jessel Murray, senior lecturer and deputy dean of distance and outreach at UWI, will conduct the combined forces of the UWI Arts Chorale and Orchestra, while Khion De Las, music instructor at DCFA, will lead the UWI Arts Steel. The concert promises an authentic experience, with the Chorale performing the masterworks in their original Latin, accompanied by a professional orchestra. Soloists from the Chorale, including soprano Stephanie Carrington, mezzo-soprano Gabrielle Tull, tenor Christopher Sookhoo, and baritone Anderson Hudlin, will add depth to the performance. The UWI Arts Steel will enchant the audience with Tchaikovsky’s ‘Nutcracker Suite,’ a Pentatonix arrangement of ‘Carol of the Bells,’ and other seasonal surprises. Over the years, the UWI Arts Chorale has garnered a loyal following in Trinidad and Tobago and has toured internationally to Massachusetts, New York, Belize, and Mexico. Tickets are available at the DCFA and from members of the participating ensembles.
