Five evening faculty concerts, two evening student recitals, and afternoon band and orchestra performances complete a worthwhile and memorable Festival experience for student, faculty and audience.

All concerts are held at the Red Lodge Civic Center. The 50th “Happy Birthday” will be after the Saturday, June 8th, 7:30 evening concert.
