Baylor Faculty Present Brass Concert Oct. 25

by Richard Veit

Three members of the Baylor University School of Music brass faculty will perform a concert at 5 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 25, in Meadows Recital Hall in the Glennis McCrary Music Building. This trio -- assistant professor of horn Jeffrey Powers, assistant professor of trombone Kevin Chiarizzio and lecturer in tuba and euphonium Jeffrey Schultz -- will be joined by assistant professor of piano and director of accompanying Elvia Puccinelli.
The concert will open with George M. Hoyt's Introduction and Allegro and then Dialogues for Trombone and Tuba by John Stevens.
Kamilló Lendvay's Five Movements in Quotation Marks will follow. These short movements pay homage to five different composers -- Igor Stravinsky, Count Basie, Johann Strauss, Robert Stolz and Lendvay himself.
Alec Wilder's Suite No. 1 for Horn, Tuba and Piano will be heard in an arrangement by Gunther Schuller.
Concluding the program will be the Sonatina of William Schmidt.
