NDSU students and faculty perform Baroque festival

FARGO, N.D., (KVRR)- NDSU students and faculty performed a Baroque Festival. It was held at Peace Lutheran Church in Fargo.

The Baroque Music Festival was performed by NDSU Challey School of Music Students and faculty.

This event was free for the public to attend and streamed online for those who could not make it in person.

Baroque music was the popular classical music in the 1600s and the faculty says it’s a great learning experience for the students. Kelly Burns, Assistant Professor of Music at the NDSU Challey School of Music, said, “They don’t always have that kind of experience at every concert that the school of music does.”

Burns also said, “So the Baroque festival is actually quite honorable for them to be on and I think they take it pretty seriously as well. Its always great to see whos interested in coming out and doing something like this and its always interesting to see how much those students grow.”
