The Fresno State School of Music presents the annual “Walk in Peace: A Celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Black History Month” concert at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 14, at the Fresno State Music Building Concert Hall. Tickets are free for Fresno State students and $5 for general admission. Parking on campus is free after 4 p.m. on Fridays.
The concert is a community favorite for creating an atmosphere of reflection and hope. “Walk in Peace” brings together the Fresno State and Fresno City College choir ensembles with a combined choir of about 150 students.
“It’s just such a special night. There’s an atmosphere that is created within this concert. It’s a night full of hope and peace. It’s a night for the community,” said Dr. Cari Earnhart, director of choral activities and chair of the School of Music.
In addition to the musical performances, community members and students recite readings from great Americans between songs to highlight the pieces performed throughout the evening.
