Roger Myers memorial w/ Miró Quartet, Rick Rowley, John Largess, & Ruben Balboa

UT-Austin celebrates the life and work of Roger Myers, an accomplished academic and viola virtuoso who educated at the Butler School of Music since 1993. Between on-campus time and globe-trotting tours, the Australian-born musician recorded debut album Fantasy and Farewell at Abbey Road Studios. Honoring Myers’ enduring commitment to chamber music, the free event features a first-rate lineup of the late professor’s university colleagues, including fellow violists John Largess and Ruben Balboa. Rick Rowley provides a piano masterclass, while the Miró Quartet astounds with classical string excellence. – Genevieve Wood
