Prepare to be whisked away on a melodious journey as the internationally acclaimed violinist Dennis Kim graces the stage at Winifred Smith Hall. On Sunday, May 19, from 5pm to 6pm, the Music Faculty Artist Series will showcase a concert that promises to be a feast for the senses.

Dennis Kim, a true citizen of the world with roots in Korea, Canada, and the United States, is not only the Assistant Professor of Violin at Claire Trevor School of the Arts but also a seasoned orchestra leader across three continents. His expertise and passion will be on full display in a program that includes the evocative "Prayer" by Amanda Harburg and the intricate "Sonata No. 2 op. 279 (Ong Hye Ya)" arranged by Han-Ki Kim.

But that's not all. The evening will crescendo with the timeless "Trout Quintet" by Franz Schubert, featuring a quintet of exceptional musicians: Dennis Kim on violin, Lorna Griffitt on piano, Jerzy Kosmala on viola, Sarah Koo Freeman on cello, and Matt Hare on bass. This ensemble is set to deliver a performance that will linger in your memory long after the final note has been played.
