The South Puget Sound Community College (SPSCC) Music Department will be performing three concerts featuring SPSCC students this March at the Kenneth J. Minnaert Center for the Arts Main Stage: Given to Dance, Little Pictures, and Winter Jazz.
First, the SPSCC Choirs present an eclectic program of music inspired by different styles of dance on Friday, March 13, at 7:30 p.m. The concert will feature works by Carol Barnett, David Conte, Henry Purcell, Antonio Vivaldi, and Metallica.
Next, the SPSCC Symphony Orchestra presents a concert titled Little Pictures on Saturday, March 14, at 7:30 p.m. The orchestra will play Samuel Coleridge Taylor's intimate, beautiful Idyll, and Russian composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's First Symphony in E minor. Cellist Lynlea Swanson will perform the first movement of Edward Elgar's Cello Concerto with the orchestra, a poignant late work by the English composer.
Then, come share in the celebration of the end of the winter season with the SPSCC Jazz Band and Jazz Combo on Tuesday, March 17, at 7:30 p.m.
