The voice studios of Dr. Guy Wilson, George Hogan, Lisa Clement, and Penny Hogan are reviving this tradition on March 24 and invite all friends of art and music to come and enjoy the evening.

Some of the selections will include Alinde, An Die Laute, Kriegers Ahnung, Gretchen Am Spinnrade, An Die Musik, Ave Maria, Du Bist Die Ruh,Ganymed and Fruehlings Glaube.

Accompanists for the recital are piano students from the studio of Dr. Michelle Schumann. The concert is free and open to the public.
