The Lee University Percussion Ensemble, conducted by Dr. Andy Harnsberger, will host its spring concert on Sunday, April 21, at 3 p.m. in Pangle Hall. 

The program will include “Rock, Paper, Scissors” by Russell Wharton, “Cruisin’ Through Fire” by Jackson Rifle, “Patrials” by Alan Keown, and “Din” by David Harnsberger.
