Faythe Vollrath, keyboard and UC Davis lecturer in music

Heidi Moss Erickson, soprano and UC Davis lecturer in music

On the 400th anniversary of William Byrd’s death (in 1623) UC Davis lecturer in music Faythe Vollrath will perform music of Byrd on a popular instrument of the time: the English Tudor virginal. The instrument is a sort of soft-spoken harpsichord, and the instrument she will be performing on was donated by the family of a previous UC Davis voice teacher, Nadine Salonites. Soprano and also a UC Davis lecturer in music (teaching voice), Heidi Moss Erickson will perform selections to be announced. Heidi has learned how to sing through her Bell’s Palsy paralysis and created an inspiring vocal pedagogy.
