The A Little Night(hawk) Music Concert Series will open the spring season with a performance entitled a “Dedication to My Father” presented by UNG Faculty member, Dr. Joanna Kim. The inspiration for this program came after Dr. Kim learned of her father’s diagnosis with stage 3 cancer. The program illustrates her initial rejection of the news that moved to confusion, anger, and, ultimately, sadness. It concludes with the final Widmug by Franz Liszt, Song of Love, which is dedicated to her father. Come join us for this virtual performance via the UNG Department of Music YouTube Chanel on Monday, February 1, 2021 at 7:30pm. For additional information, please contact the UNG Department of Music at 706-864-1423 or music@ung.edu.
