A guest artist recital featuring music composed by Dr. Karl Boelter, former director of the School of Music, along with selections by other composers, will be held on Sunday, March 24, at 6 p.m., in Rosch Recital Hall.
Recording artist and soloist Aaron Engebreth (baritone) and Quinn Patrick Ankrum (mezzo), assistant professor of Voice at the College Conservatory of Music at the University of Cincinnati, will join School of Music faculty members Dr. Anne Kissel (pianist) and Joe Dan Harper (tenor) in presenting Dr. Boelter’s “Souls,” settings of poems from Edgar Lee Masters’ “Spoon River Anthology.”
