Faculty concert held to benefit student music scholarships

HARLINGEN — How’d you like to help send some talented musicians to college?

Well, you can. Just come listen to some good music Tuesday night at the HCISD Performing Arts Center at 3217 Wilson Rd. Present a donation of your own choosing as you enter the auditorium, and you will have done your part to support the arts.

Then spend the evening listening to a live concert. The Harlingen school district’s music department will be hosting the 15th Annual Bob Irby Memorial Scholarship Faculty Concert to raise money and showcase teachers’ talent.

The faculty band will perform a variety of music, including classical, jazz, pop, rock, big band, piano duets and solos.

Donations will be accepted at the door and will be used to fund the scholarships. The scholarships will go to selected graduating seniors from the school district’s music department who plan to major or minor in music.
