Texas State music dept!
July 18, 2010
You don’t have to go to Austin to find good music, in fact you don’t even have to leave campus. In the Texas State music building there is constantly people practicing and performing pretty much at any time of the day, and at night they put on some good concerts. Being a music minor I had many chances to get extra credit and go see some of the shows. Of course the music profs are going to support the department music students but I think it was a great experience, and I think what the profs do is a good idea. If you are taking music classes you prob like/love music of any kind, and getting the chance to get extra credit is always a plus. Some profs from other departments will also offer extra credit to their students which brings in a variety of different musical interests.
They have everything from salsa bands to classical guitar soloists. The concerts are usually either really cheap or free. You can see more performances around final exams when the seniors have to do their recitals. My TA Arthur did a few different performances in the span of a week giving us options of times and places.
Moral of the story support your fellow bobcats! Below is a link to the TX State music dept homepage where you can find info on future shows.
