Friends, family, colleagues and students of Steven Stucky will gather at a memorial concert dedicated to the Pulitzer Prize-winning composer, Monday, April 18, at 8 p.m. in Barnes Hall Auditorium.

The concert program also includes an arrangement of William Byrd’s “Ave verum corpus” for harpsichord by David Yearsley, and selections by Marc Mellits, DMA ’96; J.S. Bach; Johannes Brahms; Witold Lutosławski and John Steinmetz.

The concert will feature performances by guest violinist Ellen Jewett, a founding member of Ensemble X formerly on the Ithaca College music faculty; the Cornell Chamber Singers, conducted by Stephen Spinelli; Cornell colleagues Bjerken, Yearsley and pianist Miri Yampolsky; and Ithaca College musicians Richard Faria, clarinet; Lee Goodhew, bassoon; Heidi Hoffman, cello; conductor Jeffery Meyer; David Quiggle, viola; Elizabeth Simkin, cello; and Susan Waterbury, violin.

A reception on the stage will take place following the concert. Presented by the Department of Music, the concert and reception are free and open to all who wish to honor Stucky.
