Additional time info:

Akropolis Reed Quintet was selected by The Artist Series of Tallahassee as the 2018 Artist in Residence musical group. Akropolis will visit several schools in Leon, Wakulla, Gadsden and Jefferson Counties on January 18 and 19. They will also visit Allegro Senior Living Facility. By performing for students and elders who might not otherwise get to hear this fantastic group, The Artist Series hopes to help others learn more about classical music and develop a love and appreciation of great music. There will also be a workshop on Saturday, January 20 for the woodwind players of Big Bend Community Orchestra. FSU students and high school reed players are invited to attend. Call 850-445-1616 for more information if you would like to attend this workshop/masterclass.
