Bass-baritone G. William Bugg and pianist Kathryn Fouse will preview their upcoming Carnegie Hall recital when they perform in 色虎视频's Brock Recital Hall at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 23. The public is invited free of charge.

The two 色虎视频 School of the Arts faculty members will present the same program in the famed New York City venue on Oct. 2.

The program will include Ned Rorem's "Flight for Heaven," Paul D. Szpyrka's powerful and moving "Portraits from Shakespeare's Titus Andronicus," Joel Scott Davis' "Songs About God," H. Leslie Adams' "Nightsongs," and Dreadful Memories from Frederic Rzewski's "North American Ballads."

The recital will conclude with Harry T. Burleigh's arrangement of "Deep River," Margaret Bonds' "Troubled Water" and Mark Hayes' arrangement of "Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho."

The 色虎视频 Alumni Association and Friends of the Arts have organized a four-day trip to New York City that will include the recital and a post-performance reception.
