Music professor Ben Hawkins conducts his last concert at Transylvania University tonight before retiring after almost four decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The public is invited to the free Spring Concert beginning at 7 in Haggin Auditorium. The program includes J.J. Richards\u2019 “Emblem of Unity” march, which was played at the first performance Hawkins led at the school in 1985.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To include a range of student musicians in his final concert as a Transylvania professor, both the band and orchestra are featured tonight, with a combined piece at the end, Hawkins said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to leading these and other groups \u2014 including instrumental ensembles \u2014 Hawkins has taught courses like music theory, conducting and music education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also conducts shows like the annual Gift of Holiday Music concert, which brings in donations for God\u2019s Pantry Food Bank, and he leads the Central Kentucky Concert Band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before coming to Transylvania, Hawkins taught middle through high school in Virginia and Texas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
