Led by assistant professor of music Mitch Lutch, Central College is sponsoring an instrument donation initiative to benefit the Yucatan Youth Orchestra Program, a music education program based in Merida, Mexico, for students with otherwise limited exposure to music opportunities.
In September, Cynthia Doggett, associate professor of music at Central, performed with the City Chamber Orchestra of Merida.
Orchestra students from three area high schools will attend Stringfest ’12 Feb. 23, spending the day in workshops and rehearsals before capping off the event with a performance in Douwstra Auditorium.
As the operations manager for the Des Moines Symphony, John Roloff ’10 has found an unexpected way to live out his passion for music.
