Ben Pierce Recital @ UGA!!

Post by David Zerkel »

Hello!

I'd like to encourage anyone within a few hours of Athens to come to UGA for a recital by Tuba/Euphonium virtuoso Ben Pierce. The concert will be in Edge Hall on Monday, February 8th at 8:00 PM.

Ben is one of my favorite players-- if you have not had the opportunity to hear him, I hope that you can take advantage of this opportunity!

Best,
DZ

This recital was epic. In my mind, Ben represents the establishment of a new standard of performance for both instruments. (Although he would be much too humble to think of himself in that light.)

If you ever have the opportunity to hear Ben live, or to study with him at Arkansas, I would not pass it up. Seriously...
