The School of Music's "Recitalist Extraordinaire" series this year is, to put it mildly, a stellar lineup of musicians. Kicking off tomorrow in Ford Hall, the series boasts three performances featuring some of the most amazing internationally known artists in the classical sphere today.
Tomorrow starts off the concert series with performances by Zuill Bailey and Awadagin Pratt, playing cello and piano respectively. Bailey is an avid chamber musician, and has appeared in concert with many acclaimed musicians including Itzkah Perlman, Janos Starker, and the Juilliard String Quartet. Here, he and Awadagin Pratt will play side by side, delivering a performance that is sure to turn everyone's mind to strawberry Jell-O in the best way possible. Pratt, acclaimed for his intensely involving performances, is the only musician ever in the history of Peabody Conservatory Of Music to receive diplomas in three performance areas (piano, violin, and conducting). He's performed twice at the White House at the invitation of the president, and is a strong advocate of music education.
Look forward to the entire concert series. All shows start at 8:15 pm in Ford Hall, and prices are $26.50 for Ithaca College students, children, and senior citizens, and $53 for the general public.
