The Jazz Arts I ensemble, led by associate professor Tom Fowler, will leave on a tour to Kansas City immediately following the concert. Their tour program includes crowd pleasers such as 鈥淣ica鈥檚 Dream鈥� and 鈥淐aptain Perfect.鈥�

The Madrigal Singers will step out of their traditional classical style to prepare a few vocal jazz ballads, such as 鈥淪ince I Fell for You鈥� and the Billy Joel crossover song 鈥淟ullaby (Goodnight, My Angel).鈥�

A fresh presentation of the Beach Boys classic 鈥淕od Only Knows鈥� is an example of how pop music is moving into new idioms, said Tom Wine, professor and director of choral activities. The group also will be belting out a few up-tempo jazz favorites including 鈥淛ohnny One Note鈥� and 鈥淚 Could Write a Book.鈥�

One of the traditions that will continue is the opportunity for some students to step out as soloists in front of the group. The evening will highlight Valentine-themed favorites 鈥淭oo Close for Comfort鈥� and 鈥淢y Funny Valentine.鈥�

It is a fun evening of entertainment for dates of all generations. For more information, contact Fowler or Wine in the School of Music at (316) 978-3103. For more information about WSU鈥檚 choirs, go to .
