World class music just down the hill!
Hello there Blugolds! Happy Tuesday evening :) Last Thursday I got the opportunity to go and see the Pacifica Quartet perform live right in Schofield Hall, and they were so impressive and talented! To make the night even better I got to sit in the balcony section so I could see everything that much easier!!
One of my favorite things that UWEC has is its schedule of the Series and Artists Forum events! The university does an amazing job at advertising and planning all of the amazing events throughout the year and they also always have such a great variety that appeal to all students and not only expose us students to different cultures and fine arts; but we also learn at these events as many influential, well known international and national speakers are usually guest speakers! I have had the privilege of going to many of those events and the Pacifica Quartet has thus been one of my absolute favorites!! I think that a big reason for that is because their music reminded me so much of the classical music concerts I went to while in Austria over winter break!! When I first saw the poster while walking through Phillips Hall I stopped in my tracks and listened to a YouTube video of one of their performances. I was sold after listening for only a couple of seconds and I bought a ticket that same day!! Here’s photo proof of the fine evening! Hearing them perform immediately brought me back to one of the beautiful Austrian palaces where I heard classical masterpieces such as Mozart, Beethoven, Vivaldi, etc..the only thing that woud’ve made it even more perfect would have been attending with my boyfriend, and then it’d be exactly like Austria! Have a great rest of the week Blugolds and enjoy the warm weather while it lasts! I’m so so happy that it is getting warmer, and even if it won’t last too long, I’ll still be able to bring out the summer dresses
