EMMA Concert Association presents another in their series of free events, "Words and Music at the Waterworks," on Thursday, August 1, 2024, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m.
Pianist, Scott Watkins, is Professor of Piano at Jacksonville University. He also teaches, performs, and lectures at Beifang University's Conservatory of Music and Dance in China, where he holds the position of Visiting Foreign Scholar.
At the Waterworks, Dr. Watkins will perform Howard Hanson's Three Etudes, Op. 18, and talk about this American composer. The composer performed this work in Rome in 1922, and Dr. Watkins will share how that performance came to be. Watkins has lectured on Hanson at various conservatories and has photos and materials to share with the audience.
EMMA Concert Association's commitment to education and promoting the arts has led them to create the Words and Music Series, a mixture of music, spoken word performances, and theatre. Throughout the season, EMMA presents diverse artists in free performances at the Waterworks.
When: Thursday, August 1, 2024, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m.
Where: The St. Augustine Waterworks, 184 San Marco Avenue, St. Augustine, Florida. See below for directions by vehicle.
Getting There: While the address is 184 San Marco Avenue, the only driveway on San Marco is Exit Only, so it is not available to access the Waterworks. Access to the Waterworks is through the St. Augustine Main Library parking lot, on the opposite side of the complex. (Use 1960 North Ponce de Leon in your GPS.)
