Presented by the The University of Pennsylvania's Music Department, the Kislak Center for Special Collections, Rare Books and Manuscripts, and the Otto E. Albrecht Music Library, the Music in the Pavilion series showcases works found only in the wealth of print and manuscript from the Kislak Center's collections, which will be concurrently exhibited in the adjacent Henry Charles Lea Library. Each concert will feature pre-show lectures by eminent scholars and graduate students to contextualize the music historically, socially and culturally.
