This performance is part of Zones, a unique 4-day (February 10-13) interdisciplinary symposium assembled by Dr. D. Royce Boyer, Faculty Emeritus.

Zones (Piano Trio No. 2), composed in three movements (Cold, Warm and Temperate), was commissioned in 1993 to celebrate the 25th anniversary of UAHuntsville.

Other works on the program are Ravel’s Piano Trio in a minor and the World Premiere of the duo version of Ms. Zaimont’s Serenade, with the composer on the piano, joined by violinist Marta Szlubowska. The composer will introduce the concert at 7:00 PM that evening.
