Career
As stated on the website of the Birmingham-Southern Department of Music, "The Concert Choir’s history began with late BSC music professors Raymond Anderson and Hugh Thomas. Each brought his musicianship and dedication to the Concert Choir and established the foundation of quality the college strives to continue today." An endowed professorship at Birmingham-Southern in honor of Thomas is held by Lester Seigel, the current conductor of the Concert Choir.
Thomas also conducted the Birmingham Concert Chorale, which was founded in 1966 and is affiliated with the Alabama Symphony Orchestra.
