SUMMARY:Vivaldi’s Four Seasons at 300 Les Arts Florissants Théotime Langlois de Swarte\, Baroque violin
DESCRIPTION:“Théotime Langlois de Swarte reminds me why I fell in love with the Baroque violin in the first place.”—Gramophone \n“For decades [Les Arts Florissants] have been fulfilling the task of any truly important cultural institution: opening up new worlds of beauty and excitement\, both emotional and intellectual.”—New York Times \nWhen published in 1725 nobody could have imagined Vivaldi’s Opus 8\, Nos. 1-4 (The Four Seasons)\, would become one of the most beloved musical works of all time. Yet today\, 300 years on\, it remains as popular as ever. France’s Baroque supergroup\, Les Arts Florissants\, is joined by extraordinary violinist Théotime Langlois de Swarte in a performance commemorating the anniversary of the music’s original publication. The program frames this iconic masterpiece afresh\, setting it alongside music Vivaldi would have known in Venice and compositions which were\, in turn\, inspired by his bold artistic vision. \nPERFORMANCE TALK\nJoin us for a free pre-performance talk by Brian Roach in Ramsey Concert Hall from 6:45-7:15 pm.

SUMMARY:Anoushka Shankar
DESCRIPTION:“With nine Grammy nominations under her belt\, Shankar is firmly established as the 21st century’s most innovative sitar player.”—Pitchfork \nChapter III… \nAnoushka Shankar marks the culmination of her recent trilogy of mini-albums: ‘Chapter I: Forever\, For Now\,’ ‘Chapter II: How Dark it Is Before Dawn’ and ‘Chapter III: We Return to Light’ with a visionary new live show. Written and released back-to-back during two years of an experimental\, creatively-charged global tour of an ever-evolving programme\, the performance of each Chapter infused the composition of the next. After first exploring the transient\, bittersweet joy of a summer afternoon on Chapter I and an immersion into a healing\, womblike night on Chapter II\, Chapter III completes the cycle\, leading audiences through each movement and into the strong\, golden heat of morning- a time of strength\, wisdom and change. \nWith 30 years’ performance since her teenaged debut\, eleven Grammy nominations and an Honorary Degree in Music from Oxford University under her belt\, Anoushka has spent her career redefining the conventions of the sitar. Alongside an ensemble celebrated for their endless virtuosity\, sensitivity and ear for improvisation\, this show sees Anoushka expand the vocabulary of her sitar\, looping and bending sound to create a bold new Indo-futurist vision for her music. \nForever\, for now\nHow dark it is before dawn\nWe return to Light \nThis event is part of the 2025 UGA Humanities Festival\, presented by the UGA Humanities Council.

SUMMARY:Mahler Chamber Orchestra Mitsuko Uchida\, piano and director
DESCRIPTION:“Connoisseurs of rarified Mozart pianism will be pleased to rediscover (as I did) the sparkling symmetry and ultra-precision of Uchida’s fingerwork\, the fortepiano-like ping of her sonority\, her impeccable tempo choices…and finely judged balances between hands.”—ClassicsToday.com \nA peerless interpreter of the works of Mozart\, Schubert\, Robert Schumann\, and Beethoven\, Mitsuko Uchida is widely celebrated as one of the most revered artists of our time. She has enjoyed a close relationship over many years with the world’s greatest orchestras and has been an artistic partner of Berlin’s Mahler Chamber Orchestra since 2016. These collaborators have undertaken a five-year project to explore the full breadth of Mozart’s piano concertos. They bring two of them (Nos. 18 and 21) to Hodgson Concert Hall for a UGA Presents debut that promises to be delightful and remarkable at every turn. \nThis event is part of the 2025 UGA Humanities Festival\, presented by the UGA Humanities Council.

SUMMARY:"Symphonie Fantastique" conducted by resident conductor Michael Stern
DESCRIPTION:Hector Berlioz wrote semi-autobiographical program notes for this piece that allude to the romantic sufferings of a gifted artist who has poisoned himself with opium because of his unrequited love for a beautiful and fascinating woman. The artist’s reveries take him to a ball and to a pastoral scene in a field\, which is interrupted by a hallucinatory march to the scaffold\, leading to a fantastic dance. This is certain to be an audience favorite.

SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Tetzlaff Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately\, the Tetzlaff Quartet has cancelled its U.S. tour\, including the performance at the University of Georgia on March 30. The quartet will not be rescheduled for a future date. However\, we are pleased to welcome the outstanding concert violinist Benjamin Beilman to Ramsey Hall in the quartet’s place. All tickets for the Tetzlaff Quartet’s performance will be honored for the performance by Benjamin Beilman on March 30\, 3:00 p.m. New tickets will not be issued. Please use your Teztlaff Quartet tickets to attend the performance by Benjamin Beilman.  \nFor further assistance\, please contact the UGA Performing Arts Center Box Office at (706) 542-4400. Please note that the Box Office is open this week from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. during UGA Spring Break. Regular hours will resume March 10. \n“Supremely lyrical\, exactingly detailed playing combined with impeccable balance and unanimity\, resulting in an overwhelming performance.”—New York Times \nIt’s always a pleasure to welcome a lauded\, seasoned string quartet to Athens for the first time\, and the performance by this German ensemble promises to become an instant favorite with its “superlative technique and invigorating intensity” (New York Times). The performance features pieces by two of Vienna’s superstar composers: Mozart’s Haydn-esque Quartet in E-Flat Major and Anton Webern’s bold “Five Movements.” A gem by early Romantic-era composer Felix Mendelssohn rounds out the program.

SUMMARY:Benjamin Beilman\, violin Gloria Chien\, piano
DESCRIPTION:“Poised and monstrously talented.”—Philadelphia Inquirer \nBenjamin Beilman is one of the leading violinists of his generation. He has won international praise for his passionate performances and deep rich tone which the Washington Post called “mightily impressive\,” and The New York Times described as “muscular with a glint of violence.” The Times has also praised his “handsome technique\, burnished sound\, and quiet confidence\,” and the Strad described his playing as “pure poetry.” \nBeilman has appeared with major orchestras like the Philadelphia Orchestra\, Rotterdam Philharmonic\, and Zurich Tonhalle\, and is on the faculty of the Curtis Institute of Music. He is dedicated to contemporary music\, with new works by Frederic Rzewski\, Gabriella Smith\, and Jennifer Higdon\, among others. He performs on the 1740 “Ysaÿe” Guarneri del Gesù\, on loan from the Nippon Music Foundation. \nHe made his UGA recital debut in 2014 and maintains an active and illustrious career as a recitalist and musical collaborator—recently touring the United States with the Berlin Philharmonic. \nTaiwanese-born pianist Gloria Chien has one of the most diverse musical lives as a noted performer\, concert presenter\, and educator. She made her orchestral debut at the age of sixteen with the Boston Symphony Orchestra with Thomas Dausgaard\, and she performed again with the BSO with Keith Lockhart. She has performed at the UGA Performing Arts Center on two previous occasions in collaborative performances with Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center and with Anthony McGill. \nThis performance replaces the previously announced concert by the Tetzlaff Quartet.
