TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Tonic Sol-fa, a four-member a cappella group named one of the top five “must see” groups in America, will perform on The University of Alabama campus April 11 at 2 p.m. in the Moody Music Building Concert Hall.  

The performance will conclude the School of Music’s 2009-2010 Celebrity Series in UA’s College of Arts and Sciences.  

“I think this is going to be a great concert that’s really fun, one that people will want to make sure they don’t miss,” said Charles Snead, director of UA’s School of Music. “It should be an appealing show for our very serious music connoisseurs, as well as for people who just enjoy good music that they can have fun listening to.”  

Snead said Tonic Sol-fa effectively blends the genres of classical and popular music.
