MCC to Highlight Student Singers & Instrumentalists in End-of-Semester
MCC is excited to host a Student Recital at 12:30 p.m. on Monday, April 22
In a celebration of their hard work throughout the semester, Middlesex Community College is excited to host a Student Recital as part of the Spring 2024 “A World of Music” concert series. The performance will take place at 12:30 p.m. on Monday, April 22 at MCC’s Bedford Campus Concert Hall.
"I've been working with Professor Dr. Daniel Fridley this semester doing an independent study in voice,” said Emily Holway, an MCC Music student from Westford. “He has pushed me to explore new terrain in music and it's rewarding to hear my voice develop. I'm excited I get to perform an original composition I wrote over a year ago and share it. It's a piece I'm most fond of and I hope everyone will like it!"
The line-up will feature MCC student singers and instrumentalists showcasing their talents on stage in front of a live audience. A few electronic works by Music Technology students will also be featured.
