Rend Lake College’s two music ensembles – the Concert Band and Concert Choir – are looking for talented musicians to join the ranks for the Spring 2018 semester. The ensembles are tuition free and registering now.
Concert Choir (MUSI 1159), under the direction of Sara Alstat, RLC Music Associate Professor, is a vocal ensemble that performs in concerts and at college functions throughout the semester. The course is designed to provide a performing outlet for talented college musicians. The choir rehearses from 12 – 12:50 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in the Learning Resource Center (LRC).
The Concert Band (MUSI 1161) provides a playing outlet for experienced band musicians and includes at least one concert per semester. The band rehearses from 11 – 11:50 a.m. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays in the LRC.
Musicians without an instrument need not fret, RLC has a number of instruments ready for use. Both ensembles are open to any student or community member. Both will be readying for the Spring Concert, set for 7 p.m. Thursday, May 3.
Participants must be over the age of 16, and one credit hour can be earned for each ensemble. For more information about the Concert Band or Concert Choir, contact Sara Alstat at 618-437-5321, Ext. 1817 or [email protected].
