University of Mount Union Choir Concert
Wednesday, May 14, 7 PM
Embark on a musical journey with the University of Mount Union Concert Choir's "Awakening" tour. Their program weaves together centuries of choral artistry, featuring Renaissance masterpieces by Monteverdi, stunning contemporary works by MacMillan and Surti, a deeply felt Bach arrangement, and the vibrant energy of Burrill and Kesselman. Fresh from their performance of Vaughan Williams' Sea Symphony with the Canton Symphony Orchestra, this is an evening of vocal excellence you won't want to miss.
Free and open to the public.
Sound Immersion with Tanatara Healing
Sunday, June 8, 2:00 PM, Doors open at 1:30 PM
Through breathwork, intention setting, meditation and the sound of gong, crystal bowls, tibetan bowls and elemental chimes you are guided inward to reconnect with your body and to come back to a place of inner stillness, peace and tranquility. Sound Immersions offer a safe space to relax and unwind and allow the body to move into a theta brainwave state, a state that offers the body the ability to replenish and activate its innate healing capacities. Ground yourself back into your body, back into the present moment, calm the mind and feel nurtured and deeply relaxed after this incredible soothing healing modality.
Free for Pitt Students, $10 for Pitt faculty & staff, $18 for General Admission. Reserve your spot here.
