Current & Upcoming Arts Events
Duo Brennan-Keretses Guitar Concert
Thursday, March 3 | 7 p.m.
Scott Center Theater – T Building (Room 304) | FREE
Duo Brennan-Keretses presents a diverse program of duo guitar music that explores the beauty and versatility of the instrument. The concert features Olga Amelkina Vera’s ‘Western Vista’, a tribute to the beauty of the American West, Marek Pasieczny’s ‘Seven Jazz Pieces’, each a gem showcasing a different jazz genre, and an arrangement of Arvo Pärt’s hypnotic ‘Spiegel im Spiegel’ for electric and classical guitars. Rounding out the program are three works originally written for mallet instruments and arranged for duo guitar: Steve Reich’s rhythmically extroverted ‘Nagoya Guitars’, Chad Floyd’s reflective ‘The Long Way Home’, and Emmanuel Séjourné’s fiery ‘Losa’.
Symphony of Heroes
Thursday, March 20 | 7 – 9 p.m.
Scott Center Theater – T Building (Room 304) | FREE
Join us on this very special evening as we venture into our imagination with an unforgettable performance of epic video game music.
Video games continue to create a space of laughter, fun, healing, and escape for us. Whether it is the biting cold of Skyrim’s snowy mountain tops; the lush richness of Hyrule’s many terrains; or the battlefield of Halo, we’ve all found a home in these worlds. From the 8-bit arrangements of Tetris and Super Mario theme to the emotional weight carried by single guitar in the Last of Us, these music themes are there to usher us into that world and stay with us forever.
Join us as iconic pieces from these and other games are performed in many instrumentations.
Let your hero out and sink back into the soundtrack of your own epic journey.
