Kaleidoscope, a fast-paced “continuous concert” that showcases the incredible breadth of talent in Lawrence University’s Conservatory of Music, will be presented at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 12 at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center in downtown Appleton.
First performed in 2006, Kaleidoscope has become a much-anticipated concert, held every two to three years. It is an unforgettable montage of music performed by more than 300 students in 16 large and small vocal and instrumental ensembles. It was last presented in 2022.
This year’s concert will kick off the year-long celebration of 150 years of the Conservatory of Music and the Lawrence Community Music School.
Integrate intellectual and musical virtuosity in a supportive, creative community that will empower you to find your musical path.
Tickets are on sale at the Lawrence University box office (920-832-6749) and the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center (920-730-3760, www.foxcitiespac.com). Tickets are $25 for adults, $20 for seniors, and $10 for students.
Kaleidoscope has been held seven times over the past 18 years. The nonstop, 75-minute format provides a rapid-fire musical spectrum showcasing the variety and mastery of students attending the Conservatory. It will feature everything from traditional orchestra and jazz groupings to less familiar octets and small ensembles. The music will come from all parts of the Fox Cities PAC’s Thrivent Hall—the stage, the orchestra pit, in the balconies, and in the box seats.
