THOROBREDS News: Get Your Tickets to Kentucky State University's 2012 Chamber Music Concert Series
For the first time in recent years, Kentucky State University's Division of Fine Arts, Area of Music, will have a Chamber Music Concert Series.
Dr. Barbara Buck, chairwoman of the Division of Fine Arts, said the series will feature chamber music of various styles, including a combination of strings and piano and chamber music that showcases vocal, wind instruments and piano.
Three black composers - Joseph Boulonge (Le Chevalier de Saint-George), Samuel Coleridge-Taylor and William Grant Still - will be the subject of a seminar on Feb. 16 and a concert on Feb. 24.
"This program is unique because we rarely hear chamber music by black composers," Buck said.
