THATCHER — Eastern Arizona College’s music department invites the community to celebrate the season with musical magic at its 2026 Fall Sing, “All Hallows Sing,” Friday, Oct. 23, at 7 p.m., and Saturday, Oct. 24, at 1 p.m., in the EAC Fine Arts Auditorium.
This year’s concert gives a Halloween twist to one of EAC’s favorite musical traditions, bringing together six vocal ensembles for a celebration of autumn, harmony, and the season’s spirit.
From traditional choral music to the lively rhythms of jazz and show choir, “All Hallows Sing” will showcase EAC’s student musicians’ versatility and talent. Audiences can look forward to a varied program of vocal performances with a seasonal theme that adds a little extra fun to the festivities.
“Fall Sing is always a wonderful opportunity to bring our students and community together through music,” said Dr. Gideon Burrows, EAC’s Fine Arts Division director. “This year, our concert selections center on Halloween and celebrate autumn and this festive season. The performances will showcase the incredible talent of our vocal ensemble students. We hope everyone will come out, enjoy the music, and celebrate the season with us.”
The concert will feature the A Cappella Choir, directed by Burrows; Resonus, directed by Michael Shoaf; GilaSoul Singers, Revue Show Choir, and Symphonic Choir, directed by Marilee Decker; and Vocal Jazz, directed by Patty Raines and Decker.
With six ensembles taking the stage, Fall Sing offers audiences an opportunity to experience the range of EAC’s vocal music program in a single concert. Each group brings its own musical style and personality, creating a program that celebrates the joy of singing together.
