Kanneh-Mason

This season, the PAC welcomes its first Artist in Focus, Isata Kanneh-Mason. This dynamic young British artist from a noted musical family will appear twice in Hodgson Concert Hall. She’ll play a recital in October and then return in January with London’s Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, with which she has served as Artist in Residence.

Holiday Music Festival

The sights and sounds of Christmas come to the PAC in our Holiday Music Festival! It begins just after Thanksgiving with Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra’s Big Band Holidays, and continues through December with Celtic tunes, bluegrass, and Renaissance choral music. The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra returns with Handel’s Messiah — “Hallelujah!”

Voices of Africa

UGA Presents brings diverse artists from around the world to our stages. This season includes two African performances: The Book of Life, a theatre piece about hope in the wake of the Rwandan genocide; and Ladysmith Black Mambazo, the a cappella group Nelson Mandela called “South Africa’s cultural ambassadors,” who became world famous through Paul Simon’s album Graceland.
