MCC to Host Concert Series for Honors Students

As part of the Fall 2025 “A World of Music” concert series, Middlesex Community College will host a performance highlighting Jewish Songs and Dances. Co-sponsored by MCC’s Commonwealth Honors Program (CHP), the concert will take place at 11 a.m. on Tuesday, October 21 at MCC’s Concert Hall in Bedford.

“I find it fascinating to discover how a culture gets infused into their music in multiple ways,” said Katharina Radlberger, a visiting performer. “Something that I love about the music in this program, regardless of the genre, is how deep and rich the sounds are, but also with a sense of longing and faith."

Radlberger, violinist, and Anna Arazi, pianist, will present a lecture recital featuring melodies and dances of different eras and styles by Jewish composers from various countries.

Additional “A World of Music” performances in Bedford this season include Rasa Strings Quartet at 3 p.m. on Sunday, October 26; MCC Faculty Concert at 8 p.m. on Friday, November 7; and a Student Recital at 12:30 p.m. on Monday, December 8.

MCC will kick off “World of Music” with a concert by the Lowell Chamber Orchestra (LCO) at 3 p.m. on Sunday, October 12 at MCC’s Richard and Nancy Donahue Family Academic Arts Center in Lowell. The LCO will perform for a second time at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, December 13 at the Academic Arts Center to close out the season.

All concerts are free and open to the public.

MCC’s Concert Hall is located in the North Academic Building at 591 Springs Road in Bedford. Parking is available on-campus.
