Pastiche Performs Spring Concert at College of Saint Benedict

St. Joseph, MN- The College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University faculty ensemble, Pastiche, will perform at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 8, in the Benedicta Arts Center on the CSB campus. The public is welcome. Tickets are $10 or $5 for faculty, staff and students with a CSB/SJU campus ID and may be purchased at the door or by calling 320-363-5777.

Pastiche was formed in 1981 to showcase acclaimed teachers and artists of the CSB/SJU music faculty. The group has since performed throughout the upper Midwest and in Colorado. In keeping with its name, Pastiche is dedicated to presenting a stylistically varied repertoire of chamber music for different combinations of performers. Pastiche frequently premieres new compositions, many of which are written for or by its members.

The College of Saint Benedict for women and Saint John's University for men are partners in liberal arts education, providing students the opportunity to benefit from the distinctions of not one, but two nationally recognized Catholic, Benedictine, residential undergraduate colleges. Together, the colleges challenge students to live balanced lives of learning, work, leadership and service in a coeducational environment.
