Congratulations to Hungary multiple-time alum Daniel Sender from UVA Music Department University of Virginia, for winning a Tulipán Art & Culture Award from the Tulipán Foundation.

"Daniel will create The Missing Voice: Recovering Róbert Berény's String Quartet, a project that brings new life to the music of Hungarian painter and composer Róbert Berény. Drawing on Berény's surviving archival manuscript, the project will create a new performing edition that celebrates the creative friendship and shared artistic vision of Berény, Béla Bartók, and Leó Weiner while restoring an overlooked chapter of Hungarian musical history."

On Monday April 27th, Maxwell Mitchell will be presenting his Distinguished Major Project in Music in Old Cabell Hall from 6:30-8.

The electronic-based album was written, composed, and produced by Maxwell and features many fellow UVA singers and instrumentalists. The project, titled “The Artificial Age,” centers around Maxwell’s thoughts on artificial intelligence and escapism, taking the listener to an imagined world of the not-so-distant future.

The event is free and open to the public!

The University of Virginia Department of Music is pleased to present the fourth-year recital and independent study project of Jack Ireland this Monday.

This special performance will feature six original jazz arrangements of traditional church hymns chosen by Ireland from the Episcopal Hymnal 1982. Blending the rich harmonic language and improvisational spirit of jazz with the familiarity and reverence of hymn traditions, the program offers a fresh and personal reinterpretation of sacred music.

We greatly look forward to seeing you there! Congratulations to our very own student worker, ._ , for preparing this recital!

This event is free and open to the public.
