The Southern Utah University Department of Music will host their biennial Alumni Band Concert as part of this year’s Homecoming activities on campus. The concert is held in honor of recent retiree, Dr. Virginia Stitt, and her many years of excellent teaching and service. It will feature the SUU Wind Symphony, as well as, band alumni of SUU who will perform on Friday, September 24, 2021 at 7:00 p.m. in the Heritage Center Theater. This concert is free and open to the public.

Dr. Lawrence Johnson, Chair of the Department of Music at SUU, shares, “Amidst the COVID pandemic we haven’t had a chance to give Dr. Stitt a proper acknowledgement for all her years of expert teaching and devoted service. The Alumni Band Concert provides a great opportunity to recognize all she has done for the university, students, and profession, and for alumni to give their personal thanks to such an extraordinary educator and person.”
