Next Concert: Strictly by the Numbers and The David R. Colkitt Memorial Scholarship Competition

March 7 @ 7:30 pm. Lippes Concert Hall in Slee Hall
Mathematicians know that numbers rule the universe and this program sets out to prove that musically. Those intriguing integers feature prominently in the titles of all the selections in this program. Can you guess what Five, One, 76, and 42 signify? Or 7, 10, or 6? The answers will be revealed at the March 7, 2026 performance. In addition, the BSB is proud to feature Lillian Moore, the winner of our tenth (another important number!) annual David R. Colkitt youth  scholarship competition. Students: Free.
