SUMMARY:Leif Ove Andsnes\, piano
DESCRIPTION:“A pianist of magisterial elegance\, power\, and insight.”—The New York Times\nWith his commanding technique and searching interpretations\, this celebrated Norwegian pianist has won acclaim worldwide\, playing concertos and recitals in the world’s leading concert halls and with its foremost orchestras\, while building an esteemed and extensive discography. His UGA Presents debut showcases this artistry across selections by two esteemed Eastern European composers — Hungarian György Kurtág and Czech Leoš Janáček. The program is bookended by Robert Schumann’s Klavierstücke and Carnaval\, the latter of which brings the intrigue of masked revelry to 21 miniatures that are among his most enduring works. \n\nPart of Nordic Dream: Voices from Denmark\, Finland\, Norway\, and Sweden

SUMMARY:CANCELLED: The Acting Company Great Expectations
DESCRIPTION:1/30/26\, 3:35 p.m. – The performance of Great Expectations on Jan. 31 has been cancelled due to the oncoming storm. We sincerely apologize for the disppointment and inconvenience this causes. All ticket holders will recieve an email with further instructions. \nBy Nikki Massoud\nAdapted from the novel by Charles Dickens\nDirected by Deven Brain \nThe Acting Company reinvigorates Charles Dickens’s Great Expectations through an effervescent stage adaptation brimming with unexpected hilarity and romantic heart. Akin to a bingeable dramedy carved with the beautiful prose that made Dickens so popular\, Nikki Massoud’s adaptation of this timeless novel is uproarious and thrilling\, filled with escaped prisoners\, wealthy and terrifying eccentrics\, decaying mansions\, and a young heiress of ruthless intelligence. Audiences of all ages will fall for this surprisingly relatable story about a young man’s harrowing journey from working-class orphan to a life of privilege and power. \nPERFORMANCE TALK\nJoin us for a free pre-performance talk by Professor John Patrick Bray in Fine Arts Bldg Room 200 from 1:15-1:45 pm.
