Free Concert Thursday!


The Old Dominion University Libraries presents its 8th annual student concert, “Monarchs Made Merry: Brass in the Archive,” featuring the ODU Brass Choir under the direction of Mike Hall, on Thursday, December 8, 2011 from 12:30-1:15pm in the Diehn Composers Room.

The series was created by the Library to provide students with the opportunity to perform for the University community and to celebrate 20th century composition.
The Brass Choir will perform songs such as Let it Snow, Greensleeves, The Earl of Oxford’s March, Sleigh Ride, and more.

The University Libraries’ Diehn Composers Room is located in Room 189 of the Diehn Fine and Performing Arts Center. This event is free and open to the public and is made possible by a grant from the F. Ludwig Diehn Music Fund of the Hampton Roads Community Foundation.
