Time 2:00 pm– 4:00 pm

A memory screening is like many other routine health check-ups. It's a simple non-invasive test designed to gauge memory, thinking and language skills. Screenings consist of a series of questions and tasks, are administered by qualified healthcare professionals and last only about 10 minutes.
 
While a screening result is not a diagnosis, scoring below the normal threshold can signal whether an individual should seek a thorough evaluation from his physician.

We will discuss everything necessary to stop stressing about money and start living the life God intended for us. How would you feel if you could stretch your paycheck, reduce your debts, ease conflicts over money, avoid financial traps and master investment basics?

Nov 20 - Nov 21    University of Montevallo Grand Opera Sampler
Montevallo, Ala. – The University of Montevallo College of Fine Arts and the Department of Music’s Opera Ensemble will present the Grand Opera Sampler on Friday, November 20 and Saturday, November 21.
 
The performance will include nine scenes from five operas composed by some of the world’s greatest opera composers such as Mozart, Rossini and Bizet. The Ensemble also performs scenes composed by British and American composers from the 20th and 21st centuries such as Gian-Carlo Menotti and Carlisle Floyd.
 
“Our fall performance of the Grand Opera Sampler allows our students to gain experience and learn scenes from operas that would otherwise be too large to perform if we tried to do the full production,” said Dr. Charles Wood, Associate Professor of Music.
 
The scenes that will be performed provide students exposure to a wide repertoire of music and the entire history of opera. The class also allows undergrads an opportunity to perform and have learning experiences through performing, an opportunity that is rare in many other music programs.
 
“Students from our music program have gone on to be hired over students that attended schools that are world renowned for their performing arts programs, simply because our class size allows our students many opportunities to perform and learn from their performances,” Dr. Wood added.
 
The production will run Friday and Saturday evenings at 7:30 p.m. in Lebaron Recital Hall on the University of Montevallo Campus. Tickets are $10 for general admission and can be purchased at the door.
 
For more information on the University of Montevallo Opera Ensemble and Music program, please contact Dr. Charles Wood at 205-665-6670205-665-6670.
