Steven Schick
, along with Reynolds, Theatre and Dance faculty member
Eva Barnes
and two distinguished alumni of UC San Diego:
Aiyun Huang

Ivan Manzanilla
(
University of Guanajuato
).
Open to the public are afternoon masterclasses, a daily informal concert at 5:00 and two concerts in the Conrad Prebys Concert Hall.
On Wednesday, February 27, Distinguished Professor Steven Schick will present a solo concert, including the first performance of Reynolds’ new piece,
Here and There
. On Friday, March 1, guest faculty Ivan Manzanilla and Aiyun Huang will present new solo works in a concert that will conclude a red fish blue fish performance of

’s
