Concert set for Arts Place April 8
Arts Place will be live streaming again.
“Awakening,” scheduled for 7:30 p.m. April 8, will be Arts Place’s second live-streamed concert of 2021 following almost a year without live performances because of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
The concert will feature Arts Place instructors Pete Vogler (flute), Amelia Freeman (vocals) and Eric Rogers (piano). They will highlight works of six American composers from the late 1800s and early 1900s.
The concert will be available on Arts Place’s Facebook and YouTube pages.
Arts Place plans to host another virtual concert this spring and then will return to in-person performances with Dave Bennett for a free concert June 25 at Hudson Family Park.
