Outstanding students in the West Virginia University Community Music Program will present a special honors recital at the Creative Arts Center on Sunday, April 18 at 1 p.m. in the Bloch Learning and Performance Hall.

The most talented students in the program were selected to perform after auditioning before WVU Division of Music faculty. The purpose is to recognize those students who have made outstanding progress in their chosen area of study.

Participants in this year’s honors recital and the pieces they will perform include: Haydn’s “Theme & Variations,” performed by Katie Zucker, harp; two movements from Vivaldi’s “Sonata in B-flat Major,” performed by Anne Montgomery, cello; LeClair’s “Sonata in G Major for Two Violins,” performed by Duncan Crooks and Vuong Nguyen, violin; Mendelssohn’s “Concert Piece No.2, Op. 114,” performed by Anne Marie Hillgartner and Jarrett Hoffman, clarinet; finale from Bruch’s “Concerto no.1 in G minor, Op.26,” performed by Jason Snyder, violin; and Jean’s “Arabesque,” performed by Jarrett Hoffman, clarinet.

The event will also include a presentation of Certificate of Achievement awards to students in the program chosen by their teachers for special recognition of their dedication, consistent hard work and improvement in musical studies.

The recital is free and the public is cordially invited to attend. A reception will follow.
