We’re thrilled to welcome you back to the Gallagher Bluedorn for the 42nd Annual Scholarship Benefit Concert: All of Us! We're planning an evening of exceptional performances by UNI faculty and students, featuring a wide range of works, composers and performers aimed at truly capturing the uniquely collaborative and engagement-driven spirit of the School of Music.
The concert will include performances by the UNI Wind Ensemble, Northern Iowa Symphony Orchestra, UNI Suzuki School, UNI Opera, Jazz Band One and Concert Chorale, with featured faculty artists Korey Barrett and Sean Botkin.
Please join us for this exciting event and help to support student scholarships at UNI’s School of Music!
Why a Scholarship Benefit Concert?
The Scholarship Benefit Concerts have been raising scholarship funds for exceptionally talented music students and students in need since 1982. In addition to the income from tickets sales for the concerts, we have developed a network of community, small business, corporate and university-related donors. The extent of this support has been most gratifying to the students and faculty at UNI’s School of Music.
Your support makes the difference and allows each student to excel at UNI! The annual Scholarship Benefit Concert is a culmination of the School of Music’s long-term dedication to excellence in preparing students to be successful musicians. Through your support, our students excel in achieving their goals.
To allow us to continue the support we have provided in the past, please consider becoming a special donor.
