Description:
The Virginia Tech Department of Music presents Megan Fergusson Yanik. Yanik brings the soulful voice of the viola to Virginia Tech to open the 2012-2013 University Chamber Music series on Sunday, September 2nd.
Yanik, who has collaborated with artists such as Ida Kavafian, Paul Katz, and Yang Wei of the Silk Road Ensemble, joins Virginia Tech faculty members Dr. Tracy Cowden, piano, Ariana Wyatt, soprano, and Elizabeth Crone flute, in a program of exquisite works highlighting the lyricism of each member of the ensemble.
From Britten’s Lachrymae: Reflections on a Song of Dowland to Bolcom’s poignant cantata Let Evening Come for soprano, viola, and piano, the viola shines through as an instrument capable of profound expression. The ensemble will also present works by Duruflé, de Falla, and Alan Smith.
