Arts on the Square, a series of musical and visual arts events, will present Karl Jenkins' "The Armed Man" at Market Square Presbyterian Church, 20 S. Second St., Harrisburg, on Saturday, Oct. 15, at 7 p.m. The concert will be presented in partnership with the Harrisburg Chapter of Heeding God's Call to End Gun Violence.

"The Armed Man" is a call for world peace and an end to gun violence. Composed by Welsh composer and conductor Jenkins in 1999, it is based on parts of a Mass, which Jenkins combines with other sources, principally the 15th-century folk song "L'homme arme" in the first and last movements.

Performing will be the 50 voices of the Sanctuary Choir of Market Square Church and the community-based Market Square Singers, accompanied by orchestra and organ.

The cost of a ticket includes parking in the adjacent Market Square Garage. Tickets are available in advance at http://www.marketsquarechurch.org/concerts or at the door. Access to the church building is directly from the first level of the garage or from the event entrance on South Second Street.
