Renaissance
Pays Tribute to USA |
|
The
onset of spring brings warmer weather, short-sleeves, and the arrival
of Renaissance's annual spring concert. Renaissance, Delta State
University's singing and instrumental group performs throughout
the year. The group's next appearance is Monday, April 14th, at
7:30 p.m. at the Bologna Performing Arts Center on the DSU campus. This year, Renaissance will add a personal touch to their spring concert by performing a salute to the United States Armed Forces. The ensemble will pay tribute to these brave men and women through an arrangement of patriotic melodies. "We would really like to encourage community involvement in our military tribute," said James Jackson, director of Renaissance. |
