The art and design departments have teamed to create a visual exhibition of almost 200 slides of work by students and faculty. The musical program offers performances by large groups such as the KU Concert Choir and the University Band, as well as smaller ensembles including KU Jazz Ensemble I, KU Saxophone Quartet I, Kansas Woodwinds, and KU Chamber Percussion Ensemble. Michael Hall, trombone, performs a piece he uses on recruiting trips that entices audience participation in a combination of trombone playing and scat singing. Meanwhile, the University Dance Company offers the audience excerpts of faculty-choreographed ballet and modern dance pieces set to music by Igor Stravinsky, Chick Corea and James Asher.
Contemporary music is represented in at least two performances.
