Dylan Rogge, of Fairbury, performs a song at North Platte Community College. He will be one of many performers at NPCC’s choral concert March 3.

NORTH PLATTE, Neb.-“Love” will be the theme of an upcoming choir concert hosted by the North Platte Community College music department.

The concert is scheduled for 7 p.m. March 3 in the McDonald-Belton Theater on NPCC’s south campus, 601 W. State Farm Rd. The event is free and open to the public.

“Our concert will be a very enjoyable evening for all who come,” said Kristin Simpson, interim music instructor. “It has music for the hopeless romantic – longing, heartbreak, sacred love, a bit of comedic love – even songs about loving the weekend and our beautiful nature. The audience will have their emotions brought to the surface by the gorgeous melodies and energetic rhythms.”

Simpson will direct the choirs, and Jennifer Winder will serve as the collaborative accompanist.
