Live Local Music

June 15: Arthur Goldstein Festival, Intersections, at The State Theatre

Posted by Kayla Tooma on 06/14 at 04:52 AM

Spend this Saturday at The State Theatre listening to some local music! On June 15th, Arthur Goldstein will be playing three separate shows, each one featuring a different style of music. There is surely to be something for everyone! At 4pm he will be performing classical music in a solo piano recital, at 7pm he performs in his jazz quartet, and at 9pm he plays in his progressive-rock band, Archie Blues. Tickets are available online HERE and also at the State Theatre ticket booth on College Ave. You can buy tickets to any show individually or to all three for a Saturday full of fun!

Arthur Goldstein, originally from Pittsburgh, now resides in State College teaching music history at Penn State. His recent albums include “Piano Solos” (1998) and “Intersections” (2002) and are available for purchase HERE.

Have a listen to “White Elephant” by Archie Blues:
