The UGA Performing Arts Center will present Christina and Michelle Naughton in a duo piano recital April 7 at 8 p.m. in Hugh Hodgson Concert Hall. The twin sisters have been praised by the San Francisco Examiner for their “stellar musicianship, technical mastery and awe-inspiring artistry.”

Tickets for the concert, which range in price from $25-$42, are discounted for UGA students. Tickets can be purchased at the Performing Arts Center box office, online at pac.uga.edu or by calling 706-542-4400.

Born in Princeton, New Jersey, to parents of European and Chinese descent, the Naughtons are graduates of the Juilliard School and the Curtis Institute of Music. They made their Asian debut with the Hong Kong Philharmonic, where the Sing Tao Daily commented, “Joining two hearts and four hands at two grand pianos, the Naughton sisters created an electrifying and moving musical performance.”

The Performing Arts Center will offer a pre-concert lecture at 7:15 p.m. that will be open free to the public.
