Tickets on sale for MSU’s 53rd madrigal dinner

From MSU News Service
Tickets are now on sale through the Bobcat Ticket Office for the Montana State University School of Music’s popular madrigal dinner, which will be held at 6:30pm both Saturday, December 1st, and Sunday, Dec. 2nd, in the ballrooms of MSU’s Strand Union Building.
             The traditional holiday feast will also be held Monday, Dec. 3rd, in Big Sky.
The 53rd annual MSU School of Music production transports contemporary guests to a Renaissance feast in a great baronial hall. Members of the MSU choral groups become knaves and wenches who perform the traditional carols sung for centuries during the 12 days of Christmas. The performance is produced by the American Choral Directors Association Student Chapter, a registered MSU student organization.
Paul Birkeland, director of MSU Catering, and his crew will prepare a menu featuring a pork loin or a vegetarian option with all the fixings. The meal includes a traditional dessert for the holidays and plenty of wassail – a hot, mulled cider drink.
Tickets for the MSU performances are $35 and may be purchased at the Bobcat Ticket Office in the Brick Breeden Fieldhouse, which is open 9am–5pm Monday through Friday. Parking for ticket buyers is provided in the lot directly below the ticket office. Tickets may also be purchased over the phone at (406) 994-CATS or online at www.ticketswest.com (search “Montana State madrigal dinner”). A convenience fee is charged for purchases made online or over the phone.
The Big Sky dinner will be held at Buck’s T-4 in Big Sky at 6:30pm Dec. 3rd. Tickets for that performance may be purchased by calling the Big Sky Arts Council at (406) 995-2742.
