March Madness
March is a wonderfully busy month packed with year-end recitals and other culminating events as the term reaches its finale.
The month begins with a collaborative performance with members of the Contemporary Music Studio and guest artists Flex Ensemble. Next up is this season’s second fully staged Opera at Western production, Puccini’s Suor Angelica and Gianni Schicchi. Join us as our students perform two one-act masterpieces, worlds apart in tone yet inseparable in spirit, revealing a composer at the height of his art, embracing life in all its beauty, sorrow and humanity. Reserve your seats in advance to avoid spending $5 more at the door!
The Fridays @ 12:30 concert series concludes its season this month with two concerts: faculty members Stéphan Sylvestre, piano, and Angela Park, piano, and guest artists Brigitte Poulin, piano, and Violaine Melançon, violin.
Western's Dance Minor students present their annual showcase Studies in Motion this month. The performance is a representation of the accomplishments of the students resulting from creative challenges explored in their dance courses.
Also taking their final bows of the season this month are:
We expect (many!) more events to be added, including studio, chamber and solo student recitals. Keep an eye on the events listing, and—AS ALWAYS—make sure you check again before you leave home. Student recitals are always subject to change, especially at this time of year.

Behind the events
In addition to the large ensembles performing their final concerts of the year, our students are also working hard to share their solo and chamber repertoire in various recitals throughout the month. March is also a busy time for life on campus as students prepare for final exams and the end of classes in April.
