"Prism" is what Illinois State University's School of Music calls
its Homecoming Week, non-traditional concert that highlights a large cross
section of talented faculty and student performers in solo, chamber and
large ensemble works.
The concert is non-traditional in that student and faculty musicians perform continuously, without breaks or interruptions of applause, until the end. The concert will take place at 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 13, in the Center for the Performing Arts Concert Hall.
Admission is $10 for the general public, $8 for faculty and staff and $7 for students and senior citizens. Tickets are available at the CPA box office from noon to 5 p.m. weekdays and prior to the concert. Children 6 and younger are admitted free.
An array of ensembles, including concert bands, jazz ensembles, brass and woodwind quintets, percussion as well as faculty and student soloists present a continuous stream of performance, "fusing" the music of several ensembles into a continuous stream of sound. Special lighting effects add to the event, providing the audience with a sampling of the very best the School of Music has to offer.
