STARKVILLE, Miss.--A Sept. 29 concert at Mississippi State will feature faculty artists performing compositions from around the world.

Lyceum Series season ticket holders are admitted free, as are MSU students with identification.
Heading the performance are woodwind instructor Sheri Falcone and pianist Roseangela Y. Sebba, both of the music education faculty. They will be assisted by colleagues Robert Damm, Lana Johns, Jackie Edwards-Henry, Richard Human, Elaine Peterson, Ed Swan, and Cliff Taylor.
Falcone, Peterson and Johns also will perform as the Magnolia Trio, a newly formed group that recently was featured at the International Double Reed Society in Austin, Texas.
