Dawn Upshaw, soprano, will perform at Converse College Monday, January 28 in Daniel Recital Hall. The concert, which begins at 8 pm, is the second performance of the 2007-2008 season for the Carlos Moseley Chamber Music Series.
Now in its 25th season, the Series is presented by the Friends of the Petrie School of Music at Converse College. The Series presents three concerts each season featuring leading chamber ensembles. Admission is by subscription, $125 per person for the series. Contact Sarah G. Spigner at (864) 596-9193 for information.
Joining a rare natural warmth with a fierce commitment to the transforming communicative power of music, Dawn Upshaw has achieved worldwide celebrity as a singer of opera and concert repertoire ranging from the sacred works of Bach to the freshest sounds of today. Her ability to reach to the heart of music and text has earned her both the devotion of an exceptionally diverse audience, and the awards and distinctions accorded to only the most distinguished of artists.
Charles Wadsworth and Friends opened the 2007-2008 season with an October 22 concert. The Naumburg Award-winning Cavani String Quart will conclude the series on March 17.
