The 2011-12 Lawrence University Artist and Jazz Series

Eight amazing concerts make up the 2011-12 Lawrence Artist and Jazz Series. From an eleven time Grammy winning master of the keyboard to “the world’s reigning male chorus” the series delivers a broad spectrum of music genres from some of the most innovative and powerful artists composing and performing today.

“We’ve put together a stunning lineup of musical performances with something for everyone. If you’ve never been to Lawrence for a concert, the performers in this series will blow you away.”

Brian Pertl, Dean of the Lawrence Conservatory of Music
