A Lad’s Journey, a performance by two distinguished New York musicians, is taking place at the Lougheed Centre in Camrose on Saturday, February 4 at 2 p.m. and is aptly named. Tenor, Dominic Armstrong will collaborate with former Camrosian and Augustana Alumnus Joel Harder. Dr. Harder recently graduated from the Juilliard School of Music and is currently a music professor at State University of New York, Binghamton Campus. The much-anticipated afternoon will feature renditions based on the timeless poetry of English writers such as Robert Louis Stevenson, W. H. Auden, Thomas Hardy and William Shakespeare. For tickets contact the Lougheed Centre. Harder’s return to Camrose will also provide unique opportunities for students and members of the public. A free informal recital preview luncheon will take place at the Lougheed Centre’s Mayer Family Community Hall on Friday, February 3 at noon. Call 780.679.1626 to register. Dominic and Joel will also host a university piano and vocal masterclass at 3 p.m. and concurrent community masterclasses at 7 p.m at the Lougheed Centre.
