I went to this last year, maybe not the very best musicians, but what they lacked in talent they made up for with enthusiasm. The sound in Hill Auditorium was really amazing.


Upcoming events

Jan. 11: Life Sciences Orchestra Concert
On Sunday, Jan. 11 at 4 p.m. in Hill Auditorium, the University of Michigan Life Sciences Orchestra will present a free concert of music by Haydn, Brahms, Shostakovich and Corigliano.
The concert is open to the public and no tickets are required. Donations are accepted at the door. A free pre-concert talk at 3:15 p.m. will explore Shostakovich's 12th Symphony, the major piece on the program.

The concert will kick off the orchestra's ninth season of blending science and music. Dr. James Shayman, U-M associate vice president for research, will give opening remarks. The Life Sciences Orchestra is conducted by Mark Latham, a graduate student at the U-M School of Music.

The Life Sciences Orchestra is a program of Gifts of Art, and is made up of more than 70 faculty, staff, students, volunteers and alumni from the medical, health and life science areas of the University.
