About the Calendar
This brochure contains a monthly listing of Spring
2015 events in the UNC-Chapel Hill Department of
Music. In addition to the performances listed here,
there will be many student recitals, lectures, masterclasses, and other performances presented throughout
the semester. For the most complete and up to date
information on all our events, visit us online at music.
unc.edu or contact the Department office.
Tickets
Many Department events are free, but programs that
charge an admission fee are clearly marked in this
brochure. Individual tickets for all paid concerts are
available at the door. For concerts held in Memorial
Hall, you may also purchase advance tickets through
the Memorial Hall box office (919-843-3333).
Subscriptions
We offer a variety of subscription options for the ticketed events in our William S. Newman Artists Series
and Scholarship Benefit Series. Subscriptions provide
access to these popular performances at significantly
reduced rates, and typically pay for themselves in just a
few concerts. Subscription passes are available via the
Department office, or at the door before any WSN
Series or Scholarship Benefit concert. A complete list
of subscription options is available online at music.unc.
edu/events.
Series and Festivals
Alongside our many individual events, we also curate
a diverse collection of series and festivals that run the
gamut of musical thought and practice. More information on these special events is available online at music.
