A quartet of ensembles from the music department at Edgewood College will present a wide variety of material during this virtual concert. Perhaps most intriguing is the Guitar Ensemble tackling arrangements of music by Michio Miyagi (written for koto and shakuhachi) and horn rock superstars Chicago, but the rest of the program has more surprises in store. Also performing are the Chamber Winds, Chamber Singers, and Chamber Orchestra featuring soloists Gwyneth Ferguson (trumpet) and Malia Huntsman (oboe). Find the livestream at music.edgewood.edu.
