Mark Your Calendar and Meet Shostakovich at Temple!

(PAI faculty members to perform!)

Coordinated by PAI's Matt Herman, the Shostakovich Centennial Chamber Music Festival, a two day intercollegiate event at Temple University, celebrates Shotakovich's 100th birth-year. Students and faculty from four universities (Temple University, West Chester University, Millersville University and Marywood University/Wyoming Seminary) will play representative chamber works from throughout the composer's life. The festival will conclude with a panel discussion, moderated by Matt Herman, about the legacy and future of Shostakovich's music.
