"Music Blooms," the annual spring concert for Alfred State Voices, the college’s own concert choir, will occur at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 30 in the Cappadonia Auditorium in the Orvis Activities Center.

The show will feature a great variety of music, including a Katy Perry tune, Eric Whitacre's "Lux Aurumque," a Jamaican-style spiritual, "Shut De Do," along with several others. A very special piece about Upper Mongolia called "Beautiful Grassland, My Home," will be sung in Chinese. Special guest Daisy Wu from the Confucious Institute at Alfred University will play the guzheng, a Chinese plucked zither.

“This will be a very fine program and we invite all to come and enjoy the music,” said Linda Staiger, Alfred State’s choral director.
