RE: Ken Medema to Appear as Part of Fall Lecture Series
Ken Medema to Appear as Part of Fall Lecture Series
February 9, 1999
Missouri Baptist College is pleased to present Christian musician, Ken Medema, as part of the Annual Staley Lecture Series, February 9-10, 1999.
Though blind from birth, Medema has demonstrated his extraordinary musical vision to a growing number of loyal fans across the nation and around the world.
Alone on stage with a grand piano, two state-of-the-art synthesizers, and an electronic percussion machine, Ken Medema creates a flood of sound and light that entertains, inspires, and informs. “If he had a full orchestra to back him,” exclaimed a vice president of the William Morris Agency after hearing Ken in performance, “it would only be extra baggage.” Ken’s comedic and satirical skills leave an audience laughing; his gifts as singer, poet, and story-teller evoke tears; deep, unexpected feelings; and powerful personal insights.
Performances will be held at 11 AM daily, February 9-10, 1999, in MBC’s Delozier Chapel. For information please contact Dr. Dale Allen at (314) 434-1115 ext. 2321.
