BEAD Artist o' the Week:
Mark Doerries. Mark is an advocate of multi-sensory music and performance, and founded the Luminescence Project in 2004. He will be conducting Passionate Convictions, which will be performed at the IU Art Museum on Friday and Saturday nights. See below for more information.

The IU Art Museum is thrilled to present Passionate Convictions, a concert event that pushes classic music to extremes with a rock-music-influenced and multilevel-staged production of Johann Sebastian Bach's St. John (Johannes) Passion. The seventy-five minute production will take audiences on a spiritual, emotional, and philosophical journey that investigates humanity's search for knowledge and truth. Passionate Convictions is envisioned, arranged, produced, and directed by Mark Doerries. This event will start at 7pm and will be in the Thomas T. Solley Atrium at the IU Art Museum.

This post is part of a photo series that looks at the many people in Bloomington who call themselves a musician.

Mark Doerries is a choral conductor who’s in the process of completing a Doctor of Music degree at Indiana University.

He’s no ordinary musician.

Mark has the type of creative mind that looks toward the future—constantly searching, experimenting, and creating projects that bring together his many interests. It’s no surprise that he devotes a lot of creative energy towards the performance of New Music.
