Two new Ole Miss Music Faculty — who are also old friends — Nave Graham and Austin Smith join Adrienne Park to give you the perfect way to spend your Sunday afternoon. A recital for flute, oboe, and piano this Sunday, February 9th, at 3:00 in Nutt Auditorium.
The recital is full of contrasts in style and era, featuring two pieces for flute and oboe: one is by Ginastera, flashy and fast, and the other is by Rubtsov, romantic and free, which also includes piano. There’s a piece for solo flute, by Hindemith, and two pieces for oboe and piano. One is a Poulenc, who wrote it in memory of his friend and fellow composer, Sergei Prokofiev (one of Austin’s favorite pieces written for oboe). The second is by composer Steve Darling, who wrote it for his friend . . . Austin Smith! Austin premiered the work last November as a guest clinician at UT Martin, where Darling teaches.
Lots to enjoy on a Sunday afternoon, so please join us at 3:00 in Nutt Auditorium. Tickets are $5/10, and are available at the UM Box Office or at the door.
or . . . enter our LUCKY TICKET CONTEST for a chance to win FREE tickets to see these talented musicians. Just email lwilkins@olemiss.edu to enter by noon on Friday 2/7/20.
Tickets $10, or $5 for children and anyone with an Ole Miss ID.
