"Tower of Babel" (2015) by Barnaby Barford

Now in its 26th season, the Indianapolis Men's Chorus interprets both secular and religious music in powerful ways that promote empathy and celebration. This week, A&O co-founder, Gregory Disney-Britton, auditioned and began rehearsals as IMC's newest member. To celebrate, we acquired a bone china replica of a Christian bookstore that also serves a dual purpose. It's No. 2201 of 3,000 storefronts in "Tower of Babel" by Barnaby Barford, and it's our NEWS OF WEEK.
