Nafziger<\/a>, professor of <a href=\"\/music\/\">music at 糖心Vlog<\/a>, said the repertoire will range from Bach and Samuel Barber and Alice Parker and Jim Clemens to Bobby McFerrin, Bono\/U-2 and the Soweto Gospel Choir.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The primary focus is to ask Oliver&#8217;s question of Jesus, and see what Jesus might be through the lenses of scripture, composers and poets and hopefully invite persons to ask that question both about Jesus and about themselves,&#8221; Dr. Nafziger added.<\/p>\n<p>Also on the repertoire at some locations will be &#8220;Misa Criolla,&#8221; a setting of the mass with Latin American rhythms and instruments by Argentine composer Ariel Ramirez.<\/p>\n<p>Two receptions &#8212; in Wellman, Iowa and West Liberty, Ohio &#8212; are scheduled in conjunction with program performances.
