Georgia Southern Hosts “Strings At Southern” This Weekend
The Department of Music at Georgia Southern University presents its inaugural “Strings at Southern,” a celebration of National Chamber Music Month, on May 4-5 at the Carol A. Carter Recital Hall. Saturday’s concert starts at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday’s begins at 3 p.m. Both events are free to attend.
The festival, directed by Steven Elisha, D.M., and Larisa Elisha, D.M., will feature several of the University’s student chamber ensembles, including the Magnolia String Quartet, Aquila Chamber Ensemble, Arco String Quartet, Mellow-Cello-Fellowship and the Georgia Southern String Camerata.
“This is very exciting for Georgia Southern and the state of Georgia,” said Steven Elisha, the director of the University’s strings division. “We are starting a chamber music festival and participating for a second year in this national event. We can all celebrate National Chamber Music Month and join thousands of musicians and presenters across the country.”
String students from McEachern High School will also perform during the two-day celebration and will have the opportunity to collaborate with Georgia Southern students and learn from University faculty.
