The Lee University Composers’ Forum will host its second annual concert on Friday at 7:30 p.m. in Squires Recital Hall.
The Composers’ Forum is a student organization that fosters camaraderie and creativity among student composers and songwriters. The performance will feature new compositions by Lee students.
“I am so glad these students have a venue for showcasing their creative work,” said Dr. John Wykoff, assistant professor of music theory and composition. “For most of them, it will be the first time they’ve had a public performance of their own music. My hope is that this will spur them on to do more creative work."
The program will include music by Lee students Kadison Beaver, Michael Catanzaro, Eric Harper, Candace Lambert, McKenzie Stephens, and Nora Swindle.
“I am so excited that we have an event like this to display the talent of our student composers," said Briahnna Sullivan, president of the Lee Composers' Forum. "They have worked hard, and this is an event that I will be sure to attend."
This is a free, non-ticketed event, and is open to the public. For more information about the concert or Lee’s School of Music, call 614-8240 or visit http://www.leeuniversity.edu/academics/music.
