TUBA SKINNY, Music of the 1920s
In collaboration with the Clifton L. Ganus Jr. Distinguished Chair of History and Political Science
For over a decade TUBA SKINNY has grown steadily in popularity, releasing twelve albums and touring the world. Just this year they were selected to receive the coveted Arhoolie Award for the promotion of traditional American music. Specialists in traditional jazz, the band will join us in Searcy to help us celebrate the music of the decade in which Harding was founded a century ago.

EMMET CAHILL, with the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra and Harding University's Grand Chorus
Lead singer of the PBS phenomenon "Celtic Thunder," Emmet Cahill, who hails from Mullingar, Ireland, will share an evening of Christmas favorites with the Arts and Life audience. He recently sold out at his Carnegie Hall debut, and wherever he performs, from Atlanta Symphony Hall to the Today Show, his following grows exponentially. Emmet will be joined on stage by the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra and Harding's Grand Chorus. The concert will feature Christmas classics, such as "O Holy Night" and "Angels We Have Heard on High," as well as more contemporary works, such as Mel Torme's "The Christmas Song" and a suite from "The Polar Express." What better way could there be to get into the Christmas spirit?
