UK Early Music Collective to present concert with guest artist Alice Culin-Ellison

In the Fall of 2019, faculty and students at the University of Kentucky came together to form a new ensemble, the UK Early Music Collective. This new ensemble performs orchestral Baroque music on period instruments and with historically informed approaches. On April 7, 2020, they will present their Spring Concert with guest artist Alice Culin-Ellison. Culin-Ellison will serve as guest soloist as well as concertmaster of the UK Early Music Collective.

The University of Kentucky is inviting viola teachers and students to participate in the virtual Viola Day, which offers a competition for pre-collegiate level viola students, a masterclass with UK viola faculty, and a workshop by the special guest Helen Callus on the One-Step Scale System.
