2016-17 Thursday Scholarship Series Concerts

The Hugh Hodgson School of Music announced the line-up for this year's Thursday Scholarship Series Concerts. Formerly known as the Second Thursday Scholarship Series, the name has been changed but the rich tradition benefiting our music students and delighting audiences continues:

the revamped concert series promises to make each concert into an event, with opportunities in and around the concert to deepen and enhance the experience of listening to the School of Music’s unparalleled talent in the world-class UGA Performing Arts Center.

Each of these concerts will begin at 7:30 p.m. in Hodgson Concert Hall, and attendees are encouraged to arrive as early as 5:30 p.m. to enjoy activities surrounding the concert and explore UGA’s vibrant East Campus, including the Georgia Museum of Art and Lamar Dodd School of Art.

The series opens with “A Golden Age Band Concert” on August 25, which will assemble School of Music faculty members and students to create the UGA Golden Age Band. Modeled after American bands of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the band will take the audience on a journey through the “Golden Age” of band music.
