Artist In Residence Concert #1

Description

Our first program in this year's Artist-in-Residence Orchestral series features Dr. Brad Ulrich, trumpet, on Telemann's Sonata de Concert, with Daniel Meyer, conducting. Also on the program are Rossini's Barber of Seville Overture, Holst's St. Paul's Suite, and Haydn's Symphony No. 100, known as the "Military" Symphony. The School of Music's Artist-in-Residence program brings professional string musicians from the Asheville Symphony Orchestra to perform orchestral masterworks and chamber music with Western's woodwind, brass, and percussion students. The program also supports hiring strings for choral programs, small operas, chamber music with faculty--even a live radio show! Although the vast majority of the 150+ programs the School of Music presents in a year are free to the public, we do charge admission for these orchestral concerts to help cover costs of rehearsal, rental of the hall, purchase of music, and other expenses. Thank you for your understanding and support! Please plan on joining us for the rest of the series: Tuesday 17 February: Tchaikovsky Fourth Symphony and Dr. Bill Martin singing favorite opera arias, conducted by Daniel Meyer. Thursday 26 February: "Robin Hood," a live radio show, with music composed and conducted by Dr. Bruce Frazier. Sunday 29 March: Music by Ralph Vaughan Williams for chorus and orchestra, conducted by Dr. Michael Lancaster.
