Concert attendees can expect to be treated tot he sounds of pop, Motown and classic songs throughout history. The event begins at 7 p.m. in the ʻAʻaliʻikūhonua Creative Arts Center, located on the school’s Olinda campus.

Adult tickets are $10; kupuna, $7; students, $5; and keiki under 4, free. Tickets can be purchased at www.seaburyhall.org/arts.

The concert will feature performances by Seabury Hall’s instrumental groups, including the Maunalei Music Ensemble and Contemporary Music Ensemble, and a select few solo performers. The concert will offer diverse music, from jazz and pop to classical favorites, with a twist.

“More than only a recital of the songs we’ve learned, this concert experience will be a glimpse into the music education classroom and the life lessons that come from immersing oneself in art,” said Peter Della Croce, the director of instrumental ensembles.

Eighth-grader Jack Brodzinski added: “After playing solo piano for over eight years, being part of the ensemble is like starting over as a musician with new knowledge.”
