On Nov. 14, 2015, School of Music graduate student Tania Pyatovolenko will present a solo recital in Esber Recital Hall. The resulting artwork from a collaboration between Tania and students and faculty in the School of Visual Arts will be displayed in the lobby. Tania performed excerpts from her upcoming cello recital for students in a printmaking class and an artist's book class, taught by Robin Gibson and graduate assistant Kristina Davis, respectively. The students responded to Tania's music by creating 10 lithographs and a single artist's book with seven folios. The project was funded by a Graduate Residency Grant from the Institute for the Arts and Humanities.
