A Noteworthy Evening 2009

Join us for an evening of musical entertainment provided by students of the OSU music department. Performances will feature the Library’s Steinway seven-foot grand piano, a gift of James and Elizabeth Wise.

A Noteworthy Evening, as well as other programs such as the Noon Concert Series and music student recitals, will be elevated to a new level thanks to the generosity of James and Elizabeth Wise of Oklahoma City. The Wises underwrote the purchase of the piano for the Peggy V. Helmerich Browsing Room.

This is the fourth annual event to raise funds for the Friends’ Music Collection Endowment and celebrate the ongoing partnership of the Friends of the OSU Library and the Friends of Music. All proceeds from A Noteworthy Evening will go to the Friends’ Music Collection Endowment which supports the purchase of Library materials for the study of music.
