The program will include the following selections: “Fantasia 6” by Georg Philipp Telemann, “Romance” by Philippe Gaubert and “Suite Modale” by Ernest Bloch.

Chase Hatmaker ’14 will serve as the accompanist.

“These pieces make me feel as if I’m on a journey to find whatever answers I’ve been looking for, and it ends perfectly with the resolution that we have all been waiting for,” Dobbs said. “I hope I can portray these feelings of searching and resolution to you through my performance!”
