On Friday and Saturday night, students crowded into Ralph Haugen Theatre to see Savage/Love, a play dealing with the many-sided nature of love, by Sam Shepard and Joseph Chaikin.
On Monday evening in Boe Memorial Chapel, the St. Olaf Cantorei performed its spring concert. More like a worship service than a concert, Meditation on Christ's Passion included a cycle of dramatic Gospel readings and audience participation in hymns. Lush textures, glorious swells and hushes, and fervent musicality throughout made for a beautiful and engaging performance that artfully incorporated spiritual meaning.
Last Thursday, a large portion of the St. Olaf art community came to the Student Gallery in Dittmann Center to nosh on nachos and inaugurate the Fifth Annual Juried Student Art Competition, a show that highlights the best works from the first-year, sophomore and junior classes.
On Sunday evening, the United States Army Chorus, self-proclaimed as America's vocal ambassador to the world, gave a flawless performance in Boe Memorial Chapel.
