Princeton University faculty pianist Francine Kay will perform the opening concert of the third season of Drake University’s Keys to Excellence Piano Series, which raises awareness of Drake’s fundraising efforts for the purpose of purchasing 70 brand new Yamaha pianos for the music department.
Kay’s performance begins at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 26, in Sheslow Auditorium. The concert is free and open to the public.
