KPR's Inaugural Live Day Revisited

The Bach Aria Soloists perform in the Lawrence Public Library atrium.

Saturday, October 27th, 2018, by KPR Staff

We had a blast last Friday, October 26, during our first ever KPR Live Day, where we featured an entire day of live classical music from KPR's live performance studio and the Lawrence Public Library. If you missed it, here are some of the highlights. (Unfortunately, we had technical difficulties which prevented recording of the first and final performances.) Thanks for listening!

The day began with Tabor College faculty members Jen Stephenson and J. Bradley Baker.

Born in Colatina, Espirito Santo, Brazil, Bráulio Bosi has been playing guitar since the age of 13.

Bráulio is currently the guitar instructor at the Conservatory of Music and Dance of the University of Missouri - Kansas City.

French composers were fond of the tone colors combined in a flute, viola and harp. To conclude our Live Day, two new faculty at the KU School of Music join their colleague Erin Wood at the Lawrence Public Library.

Library patrons were free to watch the live performances throughout the day, including this group of preschoolers.
