Dr. Melody Ng, assistant professor at UAH, will partner with Dr. Melissa Martiros, assistant professor at Martin Methodist College, for a piano duo recital on Thursday, Feb. 6, at 7:30 p.m. in Roberts Recital Hall on the UAH campus. The evening event, which is free and open to the public, will include works by Rachmaninoff, Schubert, Ravel, and Piazzolla. Dr. Ng says, "the unique two-piano arrangement of the tangos by Astor Piazzolla makes them accessible to perform by pianists and able to create a different realm of sound from the standard tangos." Dr. Ng, a native of Hong Kong, has previously served on the faculty at Lawrence University, Piano Odyssey Summer Camp, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison. She was the first-prize winner in numerous competitions, including Neale-Silva Young Artists' Competition, UW Beethoven Piano Competition, Irving Shain Woodwind and Piano Duo Competition, Badger Collegiate Competition, and MTNA (State & Regional) Young Artist Competition. Her appearances included broadcast performances on Wisconsin Public Radio and the Kennedy Center in Washington D.C. Dr. Ng received her doctor of musical arts degree and master of music degree in piano performance and pedagogy from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and a double-degree in economics and piano performance from Lawrence University.
