Bach's Lunch
Campus Dining and the Hayes School of Music present Bach's Lunch!
Next Lunchtime Concert: 1:00 on Wednesday, February 12
Improvised Music for Trombone, Percussion, and Cello
February’s concert includes improvised music from App State professor emeritus Dr. Harold McKinney (trombone), professor Dr. Robert Falvo (percussion), and music staff member Lisl Kuutti (cello). Experience some new music not heard before or since!
- Free Concert! In this series, enjoy live music of different genres during lunch, performed by students and faculty of the Hayes School of Music.
- Time: Concerts are at 1:00 on the second Wednesday of each month.
- Location: Rotunda of Sanford Commons in Central Dining Hall. No purchase is necessary to enjoy the concert, since visitors may enter the public seating area to access the Rotunda, but a wide variety of meal options are available. (See dining venues here - the ones noted as Sanford Commons are next to the concert.)
- Parking: Visitors coming to campus for the concerts may find it most convenient to park in the Rivers Street Deck (see the web page for how to register, pay, and park in the deck) and then walk across the Skybridge, which connects with Central Dining Hall.
