About the Lawson Ensemble
The Lawson Ensemble is a group of three musicians including UNF’s Dr. Nick Curry on the cello, violinist Aurica Duca, and violinist/violist Clinton Dewing. The group began playing concerts at UNF in 2013 and officially formed the Lawson Ensemble in 2015. The ensemble performs five concerts a year at UNF, including one which incorporates UNF student choral ensembles led by Dr. Cara Tasher.
With the help of many gracious donors, the Lawson Ensemble is able to bring guest musicians to the university’s campus. The Lawson Ensemble has collaborated many times with Jacksonville Symphony musicians, the Ritz Chamber Players, the Adderbury Ensemble from England and many other musicians.
