Andreas Klein and Andreas Rentsch also to conduct master class, talk with UM music, art students<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Classical pianist Andreas Klein<\/strong> and Swiss fine arts photographer Andreas Rentsch<\/strong> will perform together Thursday (November 4) at the Gertrude C. Ford Center for the Performing Arts<\/strong> at the University of Mississippi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of the Artists Series<\/strong>, the concert begins at 7:30 pm. During the first half, Klein will play a Bach <\/strong>partita, a Chopin <\/strong>ballade and a sonata by Beethoven<\/strong>, all enhanced with lighting and projections. After intermission, several of Rentsch’s photographs will be projected onto the stage while Klein performs Sergei Prokoffiev<\/strong>‘s Piano Sonata No. 7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following day (November 5), Klein will conduct a master class with select UM music students at the Ford Center. Rentsch will also give a talk to art students in Meek Hall<\/strong>, Room 120. Both events begin at 10:30 am and are free and open to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Both Mr. Klein and Mr. Rentsch are internationally recognized artists,” said Katie Meacham<\/strong>, marketing director of the Ford Center. “They bring a wealth of artistic and professional experience to share with the students. From developing their artistry to learning to navigate a professional career, they have much to share with our students.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During his talk, Rentsch will discuss various projects that he is involved with and his collaboration with Klein. A Q&A session follows the discussion, and several Ole Miss<\/strong> students will participate in portfolio reviews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It is my hope that students attending the performance will learn and see the ways in which collaboration is so important to the creative process,” said Brooke White<\/strong>, UM professor of art. “Anytime students have the opportunity to hear an artist talk about their work and share their ideas and concepts with us, it provides a door into their creative process and allows us to ask questions that we might otherwise never think of.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ford Center follows university guidelines, so all audience members must be masked while inside the facility, Aubrey said. The center also has brought back COVID protocols for backstage areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
