LINCOLN, Neb.— University of Nebraska-Lincoln Glenn Korff School of Music Hixson-Lied Professor of Piano Mark Clinton will present Three Musical Postcards from Vienna during his faculty recital Thursday, September 17 at 7:30 p.m. in Kimball Recital Hall.

“The recital represents three very distinct musical “snapshots” from Vienna (Schubert in 1823, Brahms in 1861, and Schoenberg in 1909),” Clinton said. “Each of the three works holds an important place in the canon that we call the standard piano repertoire.”
