Performance Features Students in SMC's Distinctive Music Program

The Santa Monica College (SMC) Music Department will present the SMC Applied Music Showcase featuring students in SMC's distinctive Applied Music Program performing songs, instrumental solos, ensemble works, and original compositions in diverse styles. The showcase will be held Friday, Nov. 1, at 7:30 p.m. in The Eli & Edythe Broad Stage at the SMC Performing Arts Center, located at 1310 11th Street (at Santa Monica Boulevard), Santa Monica.

The Applied Music Program is a part of SMC's continuing effort to blend top-tier arts education with high-quality performances for the public. Founded in 2001 by Dr. James Smith and currently directed by Jimmy Cheesman, David Arbury, and Janelle DeStefano, the program is dedicated to fostering the development of outstanding instrumentalists, vocalists, and composers, with the goal of preparing each student for successful transfer as a music major to a four-year university or conservatory.

Advance tickets can be purchased online at smc.edu/tickets or by calling 310-434-3005 (Monday-Friday; limited hours). Tickets may also be purchased - starting 45 minutes before the performance begins - at The Broad Stage Box Office at the SMC Performing Arts Center. Free parking on premises. Seating is strictly on a first-arrival basis.
