Award-Winning Barbershop Quarter Midtown Announced as the 2025 Dillon Moran Musicians in Residence

Midtown will spend two full days on Teel Campus working with student musicians and directing master classes.

Midtown’s residency is set for January 16 and 17, and will culminate with a free evening concert at 7 p.m. on January 17 in Price Auditorium. While tickets are available at no cost, this event is expected to fill up quickly so anyone interested in attending should secure theirs now. Tickets can be reserved here.

Based out of Manhattan NY, Midtown is a dynamic, international award-winning vocal quartet that provides an exceptional entertainment experience. Well versed in a variety of styles; their high-energy show takes the audience on a ride that will leave them wanting more. 

Midtown was recently crowned the best Barbershop Quarter in the world after winning the Barbershop Harmony Society’s Quarter Championship.

The Dillon Moran Musician in Residence program was created in the Fall of 2012 to commemorate the passion, exuberance and solid musicianship exemplified by Dillon Moran, Severn School Class of 2013. Dillon’s life was tragically cut short in the fall of 2011 as the result of an accident at his home in Davidsonville, Maryland.

The purpose of the program is to invite outside musicians to spend a defined period of time at Severn working with students, faculty, and the entire community to inspire, create and perform great music. The visiting musicians will share their talents with Severn students along with providing a fresh approach and new ways of bringing music to life in the Severn community.
