Bluffton University will host a Thursdays at Yoder concert featuring music faculty members Dr. Andrew Liebermann and Stephanie Titus at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 16, in Yoder Recital Hall.

During the concert, the Liebermann-Titus Duo will introduce 20th and 21st century compositions for piano and saxophone that push the boundaries of what one traditionally expects to hear from these instruments. Most of the works presented are by living composers and some are rarely played due to their extreme difficulty.

This event is free and open to the public.
