April 26, 2007 == MEDIA ADVISORY

Summary: A concert and a CD will introduce up-and-coming Calvin musicians to
a wider audience next month.

Full story, including three tracks, see
http://www.calvin.edu/news/releases/2006-07/dialogue-cd.htm

An upcoming concert at Calvin College will feature musicians who are on the
spring 2007 compilation CD from Dialogue, an on-campus literary magazine.

The concert will be held on Wednesday, May 2 beginning around 7 pm in the Fish
House, the Calvin coffee shop, and is presented by Dialogue and Cave Cafe. The
compilation CD then will be distributed on Wednesday, May 9 on campus.

The staff of Dialogue hosted auditions for the CD earlier this year and then
narrowed the field to those artists whose songs ended up on the album. It was,
says Dialogue editor Rob Zandstra, an arduous process.

"Five of us, the Dialogue CD committee," he says, "we met in the FAC for
seven, seven-and-a-half hours. We heard all of the auditions,heard all of the
CDs, went to Q'doba and decided on the 16 who were going to be on the CD."

All material on the CD is original material, not cover tunes.

The Dialogue CD is a tradition that dates back to the year 2000, starting out
as a low-fi recording project before Calvin carved out some funding to get
students into a professional recording studio.
