2017 Friends of Wadsworth Concert
The Legacy Continues as the annual Friends of Wadsworth Concert returns March 11 to Charles Wadsworth Auditorium.
Soprano Courtenay Becky Budd, a Newnan native, will return as host of the event, which will feature both new and familiar faces.
The series carries on the tradition of the spring concerts made popular by world-renowned pianist and Newnanite Charles Wadsworth, founding director of the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in New York City.
Joining Budd will be soprano Indra Thomas, clarinetist Narek Arutyunian, violinist Soovin Kim, cellist Sang-Eun Lee and pianist Andrew Armstrong.
This years program is extra fun, with returning favorites Indra and Andrew, as well as newcomers Soovin and young YCA artists Sang-Eun and Narek, said Budd. The program features works by Brahms and Mendelssohn, a heart-stirring section from Messiaens Quartet for the End of Time, French and American vocal works, and a nice dose of George Gershwin, finishing with an arrangement of Rhapsody in Blue.
The 2017 Friends of Wadsworth Concert The Legacy Continues is Saturday, March 11 at 7:30 p.m. Doors open 6:30 p.m. at the Charles Wadsworth Auditorium, 25 Jefferson St. in Newnan. General admission tickets are $25.
