Faculty Recital, "Oh, the Humanity!" Dr. Lovell, piano

Tuesday, March 7 At 7:30 p.m., Georgia College & State University presents a collaborative, liberal arts experience in Max Noah Recital Hall. The piano recital, “Oh, the Humanity,” will be enhanced by selected readings by two English professors, writer Dr. Kerry Neville and poet Laura Newbern. The performance contains mature and emotionally-challenging themes, as well as adult language. The title was inspired by broadcaster Herbert Morrison’s famous radio coverage of the Hindenburg disaster in 1937. It highlights various aspects of the human condition and is a plea to rekindle the humanity in all of us. Great compositions, like Sergei Rachmaninov’s “Prelude in B minor” and Franz Schubert’s “Piano Sonata in B-flat Major,” testify to heartfelt emotions and the cycle of life and death. This concert will also be livestreamed on the Music Department's Facebook page.  A $5 donation is encouraged. All proceeds benefit music scholarships or the GC Department of Music through GCSU Foundation, Inc. For more information, please email music@gcsu.edu or call 478-445-8289.
