Fine Arts Series :: Stella Cole
Stella Cole :: Saturday, September 19, 2026 :: 7:30 PM
Central Illinois native Stella Cole is a rising vocal star whose radiant voice and timeless style have made her one of today’s most compelling interpreters of the Great American Songbook. Blending classic elegance with fresh artistry, she brings new life to beloved standards through expressive storytelling, impeccable musicianship, and an engaging stage presence. Whether performing with orchestra, jazz ensemble, or in an intimate concert setting, Stella creates memorable musical experiences that resonate with audiences of all ages. Now based in New York City, her performances celebrate the enduring beauty of America’s rich musical heritage on an international stage while showcasing the warmth, sophistication, and artistry of an exceptional young talent.
IN ADDITION TO OUR OPENING CONCERT, we would like to invite you to a cookie celebration on the quad in front of Rammelkamp Chapel at 6:00pm before the 7:30 concert. There you will find other music lovers also celebrating the start of our season! If you have not yet purchased a season ticket by that time, you may do so at that event.
