Annual music gala features jazz and wind ensembles, orchestra and choirs
The fall 2018 music gala at Eastern Mennonite University will highlight the university's many ensembles - and a "lullaby" requiem. The annual event is 7-9 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 17, in Lehman Auditorium, with a freewill offering to benefit the music scholarship fund. The first half of the concert will feature the EMU jazz and wind ensembles conducted by Bob Curry and the orchestra conducted by Benjamin Bergey . In the second half, Professor Ryan Keebaugh will conduct the combined choirs and orchestra in a performance of Gabriel Faure's Requiem Mass. The evening ranks among concerts at EMU as "one of the biggies," said Professor James Richardson , music department chair. "It's a uniquely combined effort," he said. "You'll see faculty performing along with students - part of the ethos of our department's sense of community." That community includes music majors but also other students, as "many of the people that make up our ensembles are doing it for their own edification - and we like that," he said. "We have open doors."
