The University of Arkansas Department of Music is welcoming The New York Classical Players to campus at 3 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 8, in the Faulkner Performing Arts Center. The New York Classical Players are touring Arkansas this week and have been so kind as to give us a performance! Under the direction of Dongmin Kim, the Players will perform works by Eric Nathan, J.S. Bach, and Dmitri Shostakovich. Also included on the concert will be an arrangement of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major, Op. 58 featuring UAMusic's Dr. Tomoko Kashiwagi.
