Washington and Lee University presents a nature-inspired faculty recital on Sept. 29 at 3 p.m. in Wilson Concert Hall in the Lenfest Center for the Arts.

The performance is free and open to the public and no tickets are required.

Bassoonist Heather Dobbins, visiting assistant professor of music, and pianist Anna Billias, lecturer in music, will play a selection of solos and combined numbers that weave together a broad range of composers, styles and connections to nature.
