Lyon has appeared as soloist with the Spoleto Festival Orchestra, the Dallas Ballet and the Amarillo, Genesee, Hershey, Nittany Valley and Altoona symphonies. <\/p>\n<p> Lyon is a graduate of West Texas State University, North Carolina School of the Arts and Eastman School of Music. He also has served on the faculties of the Eastern Music Festival, West Texas State University, and Indiana University Southeast, as well as summer appointments at The Quartet Program at Bucknell University and the University of Siena. <\/p>\n<p> Shafer earned his undergraduate degree in piano performance from the Oberlin Conservatory and received masters and doctoral degrees in piano performance from Indiana University. He is an active performer, clinician, and adjudicator throughout the country for professional music organizations and colleges and is a frequent soloist with many regional orchestras. <\/p>\n<p> Their performances have taken the musicians to South Korea, Taiwan and Hong Kong as well as Carnegie Hall&#8217;s Weill Recital Hall in New York City. Their compact disc recording, &#8220;Outstanding in Our Field,&#8221; features works by Stravinsky, Debussy and Strauss. Their performances and recordings have been hailed by The New York Concert Review and Strings Magazine. <\/p>\n<p> Admission to the program is free; donations are welcomed for the 黑料正能量 music student scholarship fund. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/music\/\">Learn more about music at 黑料正能量<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Duo Concertant,&#8221;
