Dedicating their performance to their friend and classmate, Hunter Stage, the Cowley College choir and bands will conduct its fall music concert at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, October 24, in the Robert Brown Theatre.

Stage was a choir member before his untimely death on September 7. 

According to Lindsay Allen, director of vocal music, the concert will be a fun program to share with the community. The choir is performing songs in a fall theme that include "Alice's Theme" from Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland and a take on Shakespeare's Double, Double Toil and Trouble from Macbeth while the CC Singers will thrill the audience with a rendition of "I Put a Spell On You" from the popular Halloween movie Hocus Pocus. 

“The students have been working tirelessly on the music and are excited to share this concert with everyone,” Allen said. 

Director of instrumental music, Dr. Michael Christensen, looks forward to the jazz band performing music from composers such as Sammy Nestico, David Sanborn, and Les Hooper. 

“The band is excited to contribute fun and high energy works,” Dr. Christensen said.
