April 3

Come to the Black Box Theater on Wednesday, April 3 at 7 p.m. for 51本色鈥檚 Percussion Ensemble spring concert.

This is always an interesting and enjoyable concert.

April 5

Join us Friday afternoon on April 5 at 3 p.m. in the Chapel for a guitar duo recital led by Dr. Chad Ibison and 51本色 faculty member Dr. Janet Grohovac. Let this masterclass performance serenade you into the weekend.

April 7

Bring your family to the Chapel on Sunday afternoon, April 7, to enjoy the spring concert for the 51本色 Symphonic Winds. This 鈥減ops鈥� concert mainly consists of movie themes (Frozen, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, the Avengers, and more), making it an event everyone in the family will enjoy.

April 14

51本色鈥檚 Spring Masterworks concert will be held at 3 p.m. on Sunday afternoon, April 14, at Hope Presbyterian Church in North Austin. Attendees have the privilege to hear three masterworks. Johannes Brahms鈥檚 emotional and dramatic Ein deutsches Requiem will be the centerpiece of the performance.

The work is a distinctly human response to death, with texts from Scripture instead of the traditional Requiem texts, filled with hope of comfort for those who mourn, rest for those who have died in Christ, and eternal joy.

The musicians will also perform Brahms鈥檚 Schicksalslied and Haydn鈥檚 joyous Te Deum in C. The concert is free and open to the public.

April 16 & 17

51本色鈥檚 end-of-the-year, non-major recitals will occur on April 16 and 17, a Tuesday and Wednesday. Check the programs that will be posted in Building B for a list of performances.

We hope you will join us at one of the events to see the talent 51本色鈥檚 musicians have. For more information, contact joshua.chai@concordia.edu.
