The performance of "The Lovely Milleress" originally set for Sept. 14 at Coastal Carolina University has been rescheduled to Sunday, Oct. 5, at 4 p.m. due to a power outage in the building. Franz Schubert's song cycle for voice and piano will be performed by two faculty members of the Department of Music in the Recital Hall of the Thomas W. and Robin W. Edwards College of Humanities and Fine Arts.

Jeffrey Jones, Ph.D., a baritone, and Philip Powell, Ph.D., on piano, will perform the work better known by its German title, "Die Schöne Müllerin," in its English translation by Richard Dyer-Bennet. The song cycle sets the story poems of Wilhelm Muller to music.

"The Lovely Milleress" is the tale of a journeyman miller who falls in love with a miller's daughter. The journeyman is traveling the countryside in search of work and is led to a brook where he meets the milleress. The story and music are characteristic of the Romantic period, featuring such elements as wandering, lyrical landscapes, awakening love and suffering.

Jones, associate professor of music, has performed with the Atlanta Symphony Chorus and Atlanta Opera, the Arizona Opera, Arizona State Lyric Opera Theater and other noted music ensembles. Before joining the music faculty at CCU in 2007, he taught at Grand Canyon University, the Arizona State University Herberger College-at-Large and Arizona State University (ASU). He earned a doctorate of musical arts in vocal performance at ASU where he also received a master's degree in opera performance.

Powell, chair and professor of music, has been a faculty member at CCU since 1988 teaching piano and piano pedagogy. He has performed concerts frequently heard on South Carolina Public Radio. Locally, Powell has performed with the South Carolina Symphony Orchestra, the Jupiter Symphony and is a frequent soloist with the Long Bay Symphony. Powell holds degrees from the University of Oklahoma and Indiana University.
