     
  Concert Series
Over the past fifty years, Canterbury House has hosted musical performances
by a wide variety of forward-thinking, innovative “prophetic
voices.” In the mid 1960s and early 1970s, the Concert Series
featured now-legendary performers such as Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Richie Havens, Gordon Lightfoot, and the MC5. More recently, the Series has
featured regional acts, student and faculty ensembles, and internationally
known artists drawing from jazz, folk, contemporary classical, electronica,
and improvised music. Artists such as Steve Swell,
Henry Grimes, Billy Bang, Oliver Lake, Faruq Z. Bey and Peter Kowald are a sampling of the high level of
music featured in this series.
