Fourteen of Texas Wesleyan University’s highest-achieving music students will share their vocal and instrumental talents during the President’s Honors Concert at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, March 27 in Martin Hall.

"To perform in the President’s Honors Concert is one of the highest honors our music students can achieve," Dr. Jerome Bierschenck, chair, music department, said. "The majority of our students auditioned for a spot in this year’s performance, and we are pleased to present a talented group of 14 – one of the largest groups we have had in many years."

Hosts

The event is hosted by President Frederick G. Slabach and Melany Neilson, along with co-hosts Jerry Wood ’69 and his wife, Kim. Mr. Wood is a member of the Texas Wesleyan Board of Trustees. Master of ceremonies for the evening will be Ms. Melissa Benton Wallis ’80.
