Walkers meet downtown and stroll along a route passing some iconic murals while University of Arizona music students perform.
Cathalena E. Burch About 650 people turned out last November for the inaugural"Musical Murals" walk downtown, strolling the two-mile route along a series of murals where 10 student ensembles performed.
A dozen University of Arizona student ensembles covering a variety of musical styles — folk rock, a chamber string quartet, a saxophone quartet, percussion ensemble, the UA Arizona and Symphonic choirs and opera scenes — will set up along the route near the murals and will perform for the passing crowds. Last year, the crowds lingered and at some stops the student musicians would find themselves performing for audiences that filled the street.
It was Olegario's idea to partner with Meet Me At Maynards. She has been a regular at the weekly event since early 2019; Monday's walk will be her 109th.
