The National Boy Choir of America under Brahmachari Keith performed at USC Aiken Etherredge Center as part of the Aiken Community Concert Association season. The program featured 17th and 18th century motets, a chamber opera by Keith, and holiday carols, with a modern Hammerschmidt motet premiere.

The next series entry is the Saturday Brass Quartet on Jan 26, 1988.
