On the 200th anniversary of Giuseppe Verdi's birth in 1813,
our VP string quartets are celebrating by each playing a movement of his String
Quartet in E minor:
I. Allegro (Elena
Kim, Mirah Ray, Anna Ahn, Holly Wheeler)
II. Andante (Sarah
Kissinger, Anna Sophia Boyd, Sophie Ahn, Ari Hernandez)
III. Prestissimo
(Jo Griffin, Mirah Ray, Danelia Changeux, Sophie Phillips)
IV. Scherzo-Fuga

A stirring evening
of music to ward off a December evening's chill, this concert is free and open
to the public. A short reception follows the performance, which takes place in
Bettye Poetz Ferguson Hall.
