Enjoy a concert of Leroy Anderson’s music, performed by Sarah Marze, soprano; Cynthia Bos, piano; Christa Berezowskyj, violin; and Shannon Carlson, cello. Rolf Anderson, Leroy’s son, will be a special guest at the event.

“The music of Leroy Anderson is firmly entrenched in American popular culture and is enjoyed by millions of people throughout the world. His music continues to be extensively recorded and performed by a wide range of musicians. Among them are symphony orchestras, concert and marching bands, classical and jazz ensembles, vocalists of many styles, virtuosi of almost every instrument as well as music students of all ages.” Excerpt taken from leroyanderson.com/biography.php

Posters detailing Leroy’s life and career will be on display at both events.
