UVA Flute Ensemble- Fall 2021
After more than a year of virtual performances, the UVA Flute Ensemble is pleased to present their return to live performances with a fall recital on Sunday, November 14 at 1:00 pm in the Rotunda Dome Room
The ensemble features UVA students Maggie Clarke, Kylie Connor, Bridget Kennedy, Yena Lee, Jumi Park, Donna Reynolds, Elizabeth Stone, and Allyson Wang playing instruments from across the flute family, from piccolo to bass flute! The UVA Flute Ensemble will perform works by American composers Nicole Chamberlain, Matt Doran, Phyllis Louke, John W. Palmer, and Kelly Via, while sharing information about the pieces and the composers.
The University of Virginia’s Rotunda was designed by Thomas Jefferson as the architectural and academic heart of the University’s community of scholars. He named the University’s original buildings the “Academical Village.” As the phrase suggests, the Academical Village is based on the Jeffersonian principle that learning is a lifelong process, and that interaction between faculty and students is vital to the pursuit of knowledge. Jefferson modeled the Rotunda after the Pantheon, a second-century temple in Rome. Construction began in 1822 and was completed in 1826, shortly after Jefferson’s death on July 4 of that year. Together with Monticello, the Academical Village is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Parking is on the street or in one of the many parking lots & garages on "the Corner" or in the Central Grounds Parking Garage. The Charlottesville Free Trolly stops in front of the Rotunda on University Avenue.
