“Jennifer Koh is a risk-taking, high-octane player of the kind who grabs the listener by the ears and refuses to let go.” - The Strad
With an impassioned musical curiosity, Violinist Jennifer Koh forges an artistic path of her own devising, choosing works that both inspire and challenge - her performance at the Singletary Center for the Arts will be no different as she takes the concert hall stage with the University of Kentucky Symphony Orchestra, directed by Maestro John Nardolillo for the Kentucky Premiere of Missy Mazzoli’s mystifying violin concerto, “Processions”, which casts soloist Koh as a soothsayer, sorcerer, healer, and pied piper-type character, leading the orchestra through five interconnected healing spells.
Program also includes Outi Tarkiainen’s Songs of the Ice (KY premiere) and Rachmaninoff Symphonic Dances.

“This musician and composer is at once reestablishing the artistic, cultural, and social tradition of jazz while creating an entirely new jazz language for the 21st century.” — MacArthur Foundation
Multiple Grammy Nominee and Guggenheim and MacArthur Fellow Miguel Zenón represents a select group of musicians who have masterfully balanced and blended the often contradictory poles of innovation and tradition. Widely considered as one of the most groundbreaking and influential saxophonists and composers of his generation, he has also developed a unique voice for his efforts on perfecting a fine mix between Jazz and his many musical influences. Join us for a luminous performance as Zenón takes the Recital Hall stage with the UK Faculty Jazztet.
