The Wednesday Club's 141st Birthday Celebration Series will present Brandon Cedel, bass/baritone, in concert on Sunday, May 7, at 3 p.m. at Pine Street Presbyterian Church, 310 N. Third St., Harrisburg.

Cedel, who was a member of Pine Street's choir before receiving his diploma from Hershey High School, is a graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music and the Metropolitan Opera's Lindemann Young Artist Development Program.

Cedel will perform art songs, arias and Broadway show tunes, accompanied by pianist John Avida, who regularly collaborates with classical music performers in engagements across the United States, Canada and Mexico.
