"The repertoire is a mix of German, French and English songs by Schubert, Strauss, Debussy, Fauré and contemporary English composers Ned Rorem and Thomas Pasatieri. It should be fun!" said Todd Graber, now chair of the SUNY Oswego music department and formerly of Missouri State's faculty, who will perform a duet with Chapman.

The recital, part of the college's Focus on Faculty series, also will feature Lisa Casey, principal horn chair with the Springfield Symphony Orchestra and professor of music at Missouri State, and accompanist Russell Miller, professor of vocal coaching and repertoire at University of Rochester's Eastman School of Music.

Chapman, who has performed operas and oratorios with the Liberty Symphony, Springfield Symphony, American Kantorei and many others, will, assisted by Casey, sing "Auf dem Strom" with horn, by Franz Schubert, followed by four songs by Richard Strauss and a six-song cycle from Claude Debussy's "Ariette oubliées."

With Graber, she'll also perform Gabriel Fauré's "Pleurs d'or," then finish with two selections from Rorem and three from Pasatieri.
