A wide range of musical styles and instruments will bring DeVos Hall in Grand Rapids alive when HopeCollege presents its 22nd annual Musical Showcase concert on Monday, March 1, at 8 p.m.

Hope College students take the stage for this fast-paced, musical spectacular, during which audience members hear everything from opera to jazz.
