Anthony Arnone, associate professor of cello in the University of Iowa School of Music, will perform with pianist Martha Eckey, a UI School of Music alumna and current UI College of Pharmacy student, at 3 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 14, in Riverside Recital Hall on the UI campus.

The program is free and open to the public.

Arnone and Eckey will perform an all-Russian program, featuring Glazunov's "Chant du Ménestral," Miaskovsky’s Cello Sonata No. 1 in D major, and Rachmaninoff’s Sonata in G minor.

Arnone has collaborated with many of today’s great chamber ensembles and artists, including members of the Pro Arte Quartet, Cypress Quartet, Fry Street Quartet, and Arianna Quartet. Performances have taken him around the United States and Europe to many of the leading concert venues as soloist, chamber musician, and conductor.

A two-time Iowa Center for the Arts award winner, Eckey has performed as a soloist and chamber musician in the United States, Canada, and Europe, including performances in Salzburg, Austria, and the Chautauqua Concert Series in Chautauqua, N.Y.

The School of Music is a unit of the Division of Performing Arts in the UI College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. For accommodations at the concert contact the school at 319-335-1603. For a UI arts calendar and details about upcoming events visit the new Arts Iowa website.
