Budget Cut Symphony - April 27, 2019
by Michelle Saport |
In the shadow of statewide budget cuts, the UAA Department of Music wants to bring to light the value of music in Alaska's public education. Under the direction of Dr. Oleg Proskurnya, UAA's student orchestra, Sinfonia, will be performing a Budget Cut Symphony. The concert will be Saturday, April 27 at 7:30 p.m. in the UAA Fine Arts Building, Recital Hall. The orchestra will also be joined by professional musicians, UAA music faculty, community musicians, and music educators who are facing the same austerity measures at the district level.
Don't let the music stop. Please join us and show your support.
The concert will feature Haydn's "Farewell" Symphony, as well as Edward Gregson's Tuba Concerto, and Gustav Mahler's Adagietto from Symphony No. 5.
Tickets can be purchased at ArtsUAA.com.
