About

Faculty Distinguished Lecture Kent Lyman, Doing the Time Warp: An Exploration of the Power of Music to Connect Us Across Time

Join Dr. Kent Lyman for an exploration of the power of music to connect people in powerful ways.

During his lecture-recital, we will get a glimpse of the passion and creative energy of Beethoven, the meticulous attention to detail in the piano teaching of Chopin, and the tragic story of Lili Boulanger, destined to become one of the great composers of the 20th century before her untimely death at age 24. And there might be a surprising twist somewhere along the way!

The Faculty Distinguished Lecture is presented by the Convocation Committee and co-sponsored by the Meredith College Chapter of Phi Kappa Phi. Lecture attendance counts as an Academic/Cultural Event for General Education for Meredith students.

Reception to follow in Johnson Hall Rotunda.
