Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center to perform

The Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center will perform the Payne Memorial Concert Oct. 2 at 3 p.m. in Hodgson Concert Hall. The concert honors the late William Jackson Payne, a former dean of the arts and sciences college who established the Franklin College Chamber Music Series. Admission to the concert is free.

The UGA Performing Arts Center is presenting the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in six concerts on the Franklin College Chamber Music Series during the 2016-2017 season, establishing the greatest presence in one location for CMSLC outside of New York City.

The Oct. 2 concert will feature the Chamber Music Society’s Calidore String Quartet in a program titled “Folk Inspirations.” The quartet will explore the influence of folk music in three works by master composers Sergei Prokofiev, Bela Bartok and Antonin Dvorak.

The concert will be recorded for broadcast on American Public Media’s Performance Today, heard by 1.4 million listeners across the country. Patrick Castillo from CMSLC will give a pre-concert lecture at 2:15 p.m. in Ramsey Concert Hall.
