Dear Alumni, Donors and Friends of the Music Department,

Aquinas College students and alumni are the focus of our concert and event programming this year. From your talented faculty instructors, to your esteemed former classmates who’ve come back to treat us with the music or scholarship that they’ve been engaged in, to our stellar department ensembles, this Fall’s line up is going to pull you in and draw you closer to your AQ roots than ever. In fact, this year we are highlighting the Piano and the people that have built careers on the communicating power and the discipline of mastering those 88 keys, beginning with the September 26 alumni concert.

If you’d prefer to receive this poster via email, simply contact the Music Department at music@aquinas.edu and place the following in the subject line: “Music Poster.”

Stay abreast of all of the event details and additions by logging on to our website and Facebook pages often. Then, come see your Music Department in action many times this year. See you there!

God bless you,Barbara Witham McCargarDepartment Chair Associate Professor of Music
