Alexander Twilight Artist in Residence Francois Clemmons presents a concert of American choral music and joyful solo works for the College's Fall Family Weekend. Clemmons's distinguished career has taken him from the Metropolitan Opera to the Harlem Spiritual Ensemble. He earned a Grammy Award for his performance as Sportin' Life in Porgy and Bess with the Cleveland Orchestra in 1973. He is perhaps best known for his role as the friendly policeman, Officer Clemmons, on Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. Clemmons is joined on stage by special guest artists Beth Thompson, soprano; Cynthia Huard, piano; and the Middlebury College Choir under the direction of Jeffrey Buettner.
