Description: ALBION, Mich. – On Wednesday, October 26 at 7:30pm, the
Albion College Music Department will host the first of two
guest recitals opening up the Ninth Annual Piano Festival.
The guest for this concert will be Barry Snyder, professor
at the Eastman School of Music and Silver Medalist at the
1966 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition.

The first half of the recital will feature Albion faculty
members Clayton Parr, tenor, and Lia Jenson-Abbott, piano.
Their portion of the recital is titled “An Ironic Recital:
Multiple Meanings in Songs from Mozart to Hamilton.” They
purposely picked pieces where a few things might be
happening. Either the piece of music doesn’t fit the words,
the words being sung have other or double meanings, or the
audience’s expectations are otherwise subverted. Their
portion will prove to be educational and comical!

The second half will feature guest artist and clinician
Barry Snyder. This is the third time Professor Snyder has
appeared for the Piano Festival He is a wonderful artist
and contributes greatly to the students’ progress. His
portion of the program will feature works by Bach,
Beethoven, Messiaen, and ends with a wonderful piece by
Rachmaninoff. Prof. Snyder’s playing is something that
should not be missed!
