Student-Driven Concert Returns for Another Unforgettable Showcase
MOORPARK — Moorpark College’s music students are bringing their talents to the stage with Come Together, a two-night concert event featuring an eclectic mix of classic hits, modern favorites, and original student compositions. Performances will take place at the Moorpark College Performing Arts Center on April 4–5, including a free matinee for local students and seniors.
With 40 songs across two unique concert lineups, this production highlights the creativity and dedication of the college’s up-and-coming musicians. Come Together is produced and performed by Moorpark College Music Technology students as part of their academic exploration of music, performance, and production.
“This production is not just a concert; it’s a celebration of our students’ dedication and passion for the arts,” said Nathan Bowen, Performing and Media Arts department chair at Moorpark College. “We are so proud of the talent and hard work our students have poured into this performance, and we’re excited to share it with the community. We sold out shows the past two semesters, and momentum has been growing for this to be a true showcase of a legitimate local music scene of up-and-coming talent.”
A two-day concert event, Come Together kicks off with a free matinee on Friday, April 4, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., open to local high school students, Moorpark College students, and seniors (65+) by reservation. Additional performances will be held Friday, April 4, at 7:30 p.m., and Saturday, April 5, at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available for purchase at MoorparkCollege.edu/PAC, with proceeds directly supporting the Moorpark College Music program and future productions.
