University holiday concert Nov. 20
Bluffton University will host its Holiday Concert featuring the concert band and several instrumental ensembles at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 20, in Yoder Recital Hall. The event is free and open to the public.
The Bluffton University Concert Band, under the direction of Dr. Roy Couch, assistant professor of music, will perform several selections including “On This Day”- an arrangement based on a 16th century tune “Personent Hodie,” a beautiful, lyrical piece by Brian Balmages called “Star Above, Shine Brightly,” the Christmas classic “Twas the Night Before Christmas” with narrator, and a medley of Christmas pop favorites.
In addition, the instrumental chamber ensembles, both brass and woodwind, from the department will perform.
