GREENVILLE—Darke County Center for the Arts will present “Sons of Serendip” in concert at Henry St. Clair Memorial Hall in Greenville on Saturday, April 22 at 8 p.m. The Billboard-charting classical crossover group gained national attention when they appeared on the ninth season of America’s Got Talent, eventually placing fourth after completing several rounds in the competition to reach the finals with their unique blend of vocals, harp, piano, and cello. “Their ethereal, stirring interpretations of pop songs won the hearts of viewers and judges, and will thrill our audience when they share their amazing music,” said DCCA Artistic Director David Warner.

Original members vocalist Micah Christian, harpist Mason Morton, and pianist Cordaro Rodriguez met as graduate students at Boston University, a coming together that they recognized as a happy chance, and inspiring their group’s name, “Sons of Serendip.” Now joined by award-winning cellist Nathaniel Taylor, the group has produced four successful albums and is known for their soulful live performances, notably including collaborations with Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops, the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, and Cynthia Erivo.

Rodney Oda and Gail Overholser are sponsors of the concert by “Sons of Serendip.” The Ohio Arts Council helped fund this program with state tax dollars to encourage economic growth, educational excellence and cultural enrichment for all Ohioans. Also, DCCA membership contributions and funds provided by Darke County Endowment for the Arts support all DCCA presentations.
