SUMMARY:CANCELLED: Zakir Hussain’s Masters of Percussion
DESCRIPTION:It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of Zakir Hussain (9 March 1951 – 15 December 2024). Arguably one of the greatest musicians of all time\, the multi-Grammy Award winner was also an exceptionally gracious\, humble and beautiful human being. It has been an honor to present him in concert at UGA on two occasions in the past. Our deepest condolences go to his family. His “Masters of Percussion” performance on April 10\, 2025\, has been canceled. All tickets will be refunded within the coming days. Please contact the UGA Performing Arts Center Box Office with any questions.  \n\n“A combination of theatricality\, musical heart and phenomenal virtuosity. It was over-the-top exciting.”—Seen and Heard International \nZakir Hussain is a musician of the highest order\, one whose consistently brilliant and enthralling performances have established him as a national treasure in his home country of India and one of its reigning cultural ambassadors. His playing is marked by uncanny intuition and masterful improvisational dexterity\, demonstrating a “virtuosity that is barely to be believed” (Washington Post). This cross-cultural collaborative performance combines the remarkable talents of the preeminent classical tabla virtuoso of our time with those of an impressive roster of percussionists.

SUMMARY:Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Nathalie Stutzmann\, conductor Anna Geniushene\, piano
DESCRIPTION:“The most elegant and articulate words fail to do justice to Stutzmann’s performance. She is a consummate rock star on the podium. With her precise\, yet large and wild articulations\, she doesn’t ‘conduct’ so much as she seizes the full potential of every note and wrenches it loose from the silence that preceded it.”—ArtsATL \nExperience the seismic power of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra with Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1\, the ultimate musical thrill ride that surges with staggering virtuosity\, luxuriant melodies\, and thundering orchestral verve. The ASO welcomes the sensational 2022 Van Cliburn medalist Anna Geniushene\, who plays “with an exquisite touch and an almost infinite tonal palette” (La Scena). During the second half\, Music Director Nathalie Stutzmann shifts into the kaleidoscopic world of Maurice Ravel—the ultimate orchestral colorist. Leaning into the limitless nuance of the ASO’s artistry\, she presents three works including La valse\, a haunting\, volcanic dream of a Viennese waltz. \nPERFORMANCE TALK\nJoin us for a free pre-performance talk by Arielle Crumley in Ramsey Concert Hall from 2:15-2:45 pm.

SUMMARY:Brandon Patrick George\, flute Kenneth Weiss\, harpsichord
DESCRIPTION:“Brandon Patrick George is a flutist who has gained much attention and accolades with his virtuosity and gorgeous round flute tone.”—Sound in Review \n“[Kenneth Weiss’s] playing\, refined in its technique and communicative in its inflections\, pulsates with life.”—BBC Music Magazine \nBrandon Patrick George is a leading flute soloist and a member of the Grammy Award-winning Imani Winds whose repertoire extends from the Baroque era to today.

He has worked as an accompanist\, vocal coach\, opera continuist\, chamber musician\, conductor\, and soloist for several decades\, performing extensively in Europe\, North America and Asia. The two virtuosos join forces to dazzle us with a performance of gems by a legendary father/son duo: J.S. and C.P.E. Bach. \nMahan Esfahani\, originally announced to perform\, is unfortunately unable to do so.

SUMMARY:Mahler: Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection" UGA Symphony Orchestra and Combined Choirs
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss the biggest concert of the year\, featuring over 300 student musicians. The University of Georgia Symphony Orchestra\, Hodgson Singers\, University Chorus\, and Men’s and Women’s Glee Clubs will perform Symphony No. 2 in C minor by Gustav Mahler. Known as the Resurrection Symphony\, it was written between 1888 and 1894 and was first performed in 1895. This symphony was one of Mahler’s most popular and successful works during his lifetime. It was his first major work that established his lifelong view of the beauty of afterlife and resurrection. In this large work\, the composer further developed the creativity of “sound of the distance” and creating a “world of its own” aspects already seen in his First Symphony.
