Last Tuesday night carillon recital

Tuesday, August 1, will be the last 2017 Wingate Summer Carillon recital and will feature Dr. Linda Dzuris from Clemson University. Linda received her B. Music, M.M. and D.M.A from the U of Michigan at Ann Arbor with further carillon study at the Netherlands Carillon School. Linda's program will include four Yiddish songs, a Tribute to Copland, five Spirituals for Carillons, Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue", and "Fantasia on Three Japanese Folk Songs." The program runs from 7 to 8 pm, rain or shine.

The Wingate Summer Series honors the first university carillonneur, Dr. Ray Wingate, professor of organ, who served as carillonneur from the arrival of the bells in 1937 until his death in 1968. The series is generously funded by the Margaret Merrill and Ray Winthrop Wingate Memorial Carillon Foundation. This summer's series is dedicated to Margaret Wingate Rase (1919-2016), president of the Foundation for 49 years.
