Making music daily.

You can always find us making music in Voxman Music Building, whether our concert hall stage is full of orchestra members or a single musician is rehearsing in one of our high-tech studio spaces. You can catch our performances via livestream or watch a previous recording.

Conifer String Quartet at the Obermann Center

Friday, May 1, 2026 6:30pm to 8:00pm
111 Church Street

Join us for a festive evening of live music as the Obermann Center welcomes an outstanding UI string quartet!

The Conifer Quartet will present a dynamic program featuring works spanning from the classical era to contemporary pieces by our own University of Iowa faculty. To provide deeper context, the musicians will briefly discuss the history, themes, and styles of each movement before playing, and we will open the floor for an audience Q&A at the end of the performance.

We look forward to sharing...

It’s showtime! Based on Tim Burton’s dearly beloved film, this hilarious musical tells the story of Lydia Deetz, a strange and unusual teenager whose whole life changes when she meets a recently deceased couple and a demon with a thing for stripes. With an irreverent book, an astonishing set, and a score that’s out of this Netherworld, Beetlejuice is “SCREAMINGLY GOOD FUN!” (Variety). And under its uproarious surface (six feet under, to be exact), it’s a remarkably touching show about family, love, and making the most of every Day-O!
