​I know of no other choral ensemble that focuses on newly written music with such thoroughness and obvious commitment. I recommend them to any institution seeking a transformational musical highlight for a concert season or academic semester. C4: a must-see

C4 performs at Queensborough Community College

In early March 2020 C4 travelled to Queensborough Community College for a noontime performance for music students and community members. We performed some works from our latest concert cycle, a couple past favorites, and a new piece by QCC faculty member André Brégégère. To engage the students directly, we included a couple pieces with sections that we could teach to the audience. In this video, Daniel Andor-Ardó teaches the audience to sing along with the round melody in Brian Mountford's Lest We Be Scattered.
