    Pastiche

    Collegeville

    You can see the very talented music faculty at CSB/SJU perform this weekend. Each year they coordinate their schedules to perform together as the ensemble Pastiche. Programs feature a wide range of instrumental and vocal music from the Baroque to the 21st century. They're always searching for those special gems - rarities and lesser known music that fit perfectly into non-traditional recital programs. The show is always different and always enjoyable. Tickets are just $12 and show time begins Friday at 8:00 p.m. at the Stephen B Humphrey Theater.

    - Friday, February 7th, 8:00 p.m.
