Hoag Student Center Auditorium Saturday, January 23, 2010, 4pm
Joe Chapman, a music professor at North Georgia College & State University, will mark the bicentennial of Frederic Chopin and Robert Schumann with a free concert. Regarded as two of the leading composers of piano music during the Romantic period of the 19th century, Chopin and Schumann were born just a few months apart in 1810. The program will feature Schumann’s Sonata in G Minor, along with a complete performance of Chopin’s Ballades. Chapman has performed in the United States and eight foreign countries as a pianist, conductor, vocalist and accompanist. He has presented solo piano recitals across Georgia and throughout the southeast, including programs for public radio and television. Chapman also is an active arranger and composer.
