An Evening of Pops & Pancakes 

4th Annual Prism Pops Concert follows Pancake Dinner fundraiser on Tues., March 1

The Liberty Central School Music Department will kick off March as "Music in our Schools Month" on Tuesday, March 1st with the Annual Pops Concert. The concert will take place at 7:00 PM in the David E. Panebaker Auditorium at Liberty High School.

There will also be a pancake dinner from 5-7 p.m. in the Liberty High School Cafeteria. The dinner is sponsored by the LHS Student Council and Interact Clubs and proceeds will benefit the St. Baldrick’s Foundation. The cost is $6 for adults and $3 for seniors and students.

This year’s concert format will feature the fourth annual prism concert at Liberty. A prism concert is an interactive concert in which the different participating ensembles perform in different areas of the auditorium allowing the audience to encounter each group’s different moods throughout the evening. The music is continuous and the performers are set up in different positions throughout the auditorium. The only time there is applause is at the very end of the concert.

“In an effort to make our concerts more audience friendly, we have adopted the prism format,” says LCS Director of Music Gary Siegel. The concert will begin promptly at 7 PM and will last approximately one hour. The program will include performances by the numerous ensembles from Liberty High and Middle School featuring popular music both old and new.

Tim Hamblin will conduct the High School Choruses, Dan McConnell will direct the HS Bands and Jazz Ensemble, Scott Glasser will lead the orchestra and chamber group, Emily Ford will conduct the Middle School Chorus’ and the Middle School Jazz Ensemble and Woodwind Ensembles will be under the direction of Gary Siegel.

Suggested donation is $3.00/person and a family of four or more is $10. Proceeds go to benefit the Liberty Music Scholarship Funds. Snow date is Wednesday, March 3.
