2017 Feb 21

Central Methodist University student Denise Weigand, from Weatherby, Mo. , will play in the CMU University Band's first concert of the semester on Sunday, Feb. 26 at 4 p.m. in Linn Memorial United Methodist Church on the Fayette campus.

The band is made up of both music and non-music majors who come together for the love of playing instrumental music. Some CMU Concert Band members are also in the University Band, often playing a secondary musical instrument for the experience. This year the band comprises 56 students.

University Band will be conducted by Professor Skip Vandelicht, associate professor of music and director of bands, and Adjunct Professor Steve Litwiller.

The program will include "The High School Cadets" by John Philip Sousa; "Gaelic Rhapsody" by Elliott Del Borgo; "Overcome," arranged by Bill Locklear; "Kentucky 1800" by Clare Grundman; "Slumber My Darling" by Stephen Foster and arranged by Brant Karrick; and "Dedicatory Overture" by Clifton Williams.

Weigand is a senior currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Physics degree at CMU.
