Concert Series Showcases Contemporary Music

The Department of Music at Georgia Southern University presents the second spring installment of its "On the Verge" Concert Series on Monday, Feb. 24, when Present-Continuous, the new music ensemble of the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, performs in the Carol A. Carter Recital Hall at 7:30 p.m.

Present-Continuous, directed by Alejandro Rutty, is a prime example of the current trends in classical music, and its concerts feature contemporary cutting-edge compositions.

“On the Verge is designed to give Georgia Southern students and Statesboro-area residents exposure to ensembles and concerts that they might otherwise not have access to,” said Martin Gendelman, Department of Music coordinator of the series. “By hearing the latest sounds in contemporary classical music, musicians of all ages and levels can expand their repertoire and might be inspired to try something new.”

All "On the Verge" concerts are free and open to the public. The Carol A. Carter Recital Hall is located in the University’s Foy Building, behind the Fielding S. Russell Union. For more information, contact the Department of Music at 912-478-5396.
