• The saying “those who can’t do, teach” does not apply to Ithaca College’s Jennifer Hayghe. Not only does she teach music, but she also plays it. Hayghe, an assistant professor in Ithaca’s School of Music, will be performing a piano recital this Sunday at 4 p.m. in I.C.’s Hockett Family Recital Hall. Hayghe certainly prooves that doing and teaching are not mutually exclusive.
• Grace Episcopal Church, located at 13 Court Street in Cortland, will host the Young Artists’ Showcase this Sunday. Take this opportunity to experience the sights and sounds of the artists who will likely fill your headphones, concert halls and radios Students from all over Central New York with hopes of careers in musical performance will be showing their stuff. Check out the future of music, starting at 4 p.m.
