concert, at 3 p.m. Nov. 13, 2011
in Kobacker Hall of the Moore Musical Arts Center.

songs and pregame music.
Among the selections will be: “I Hear America Singing,” a
creative collection of patriotic selections that features the
BGSU Men’s Chorus, under the direction Tim Cloeter. Other
favorites from the season will include “Beatlemania,” a
selection of hit songs made famous by the “Fab Four”; “Let’s
Hear It for Boys,” a spoof of some of the popular ’90s boy
bands; and “Styx and Stones,” featuring the music of the classic
rock bands Styx and the Rolling Stones.
The largest student organizations on campus, with 280 members,
the band is composed of students from all colleges of the
University and is open to all students by audition regardless of
major and class standing.
