Join the faculty of the Music Academy for a free recital to raise awareness and support for the Academy. With a Northwestern history that dates back to the late 1800s, the Bienen School’s community music division provides, piano, string, and guitar lessons to over 300 children and adults. Academy faculty members will perform a variety of solo, two-piano, and string works by W. A. Mozart, Bedřich Smetana, George Gershwin, Charles Trenet, Sergei Rachmaninoff, Dave Brubeck, and more.
