Music lovers are in for a treat as students from Santa Fe College's instrumental and vocal programs take the stage for a recital.

The evening will showcase two of SF’s music groups: the guitar ensemble and the contemporary pop ensemble.
“The SF guitar ensemble is comprised of students with a wide range of skill levels,” said Edward White, SF Assistant Professor of Music. “Some have just started playing guitar and have never performed in front of a live audience, and some have been playing for a few years and are pursuing music as a career.”

The guitar ensemble’s set will include an arrangement of “Billie Jean” and a rendition of Hans Zimmer's iconic theme from “Interstellar.” Adding a modern touch to the program, SF’s contemporary pop ensemble will perform student-led arrangements of popular songs.

This event gives students a chance to experience what it’s like to perform in a professional setting, using a full range of modern instruments including guitar, bass, drums, keys and vocals.

The recital is sponsored and organized by the Santa Fe College Fine Arts and Entertainment Technology Department.
