Admission is $10, $5 for middle and high school students, free for elementary students.

Alaska Pro Musica -- violinist Walter Olivares, pianist Timothy Smith and clarinetist Mark Wolbers -- will present a recital in the UAA Arts Building recital hall at 4 p.m. Sunday. The program includes works by Johann Baptist Vanhal, Aram Khachaturian, Edvard Grieg and the late Pierre Gabaye.

Featured Artist

Sam Beam, Iron and Wine
Sold-out Iron and Wine concert is sure to be a crowd pleaser

No word will more accurately describe tonight's Iron and Wine show than intimate. The importance of preserving the feeling was one reason the performance was booked at UAA's Wendy Williamson Auditorium, despite the fact that demand would likely surpass the venue's 850 seats, according to Zac Clark, concert board coordinator for the University of Alaska Anchorage.
