Six students from the Jacobs School of Music will perform Friday at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., the school announced in a press release Friday.
The concert is part of the Conservatory Project.
The project spotlights young musicians in classical, jazz, musical theater and opera from universities, conservatories and colleges across the country.
The Conservatory Project is part of Performing Arts for Everyone’s Millennium Stage series.
The project “introduces Washington audiences to young musicians destined to have important careers,” according to the Kennedy Center website.
Performers from IU are violist Inés Picado Molares, tenor Bille Bruley, guitarist Carlo Fierens and the Bloomington Trio, comprising pianist Ilya Friedberg, violinist Eliot Heaton and cellist SeungAh Hong.
Those students will also preview the program, which includes performances of works by Johann Sebastian Bach, Alec Roth and Maurice Ravel. The free concert is at 12:15 p.m. Tuesday in Ford-Crawford Hall.
IU music students have performed in the Conservatory Project series every year since 2011, according to the Kennedy Center website.
Friday’s concert is free and open to the public.
It will also be streamed live on the Kennedy Center’s website.
