Sessions for adult choir directors, organists and children and youth choir directors will follow. In addition, videotapes about church music will be available for viewing throughout the day. The UNL School of Music is sponsoring the workshop in cooperation with the Schmitt Music Centers. The workshop is supported in part by the Bostrom Memorial Fund. Orvid Owens is the coordinator.
Participants can look to the workshop for practical presentations of techniques and skills.
Persons from small churches and churches with modest resources for music are especially invited to attend. Set in 19th century Italy, Passion depicts the relationship between a sensitive young army captain, Giorgio, and two women. The beautiful and sensuous Clara is content to live only for the passionate moments she and Giorgio can share. However, the ailing and obsessive Fosca demands Giorgio's total and unconditional love. These shows will coincide with the visual art openings on the first Friday of every month at the Historic Haymarket Galleries.
