SUMMARY:Brass Glory
DESCRIPTION:Earworms\, by Canada’s Vivian Fung\, is a lighthearted mashup of music’s most memorable melodies\, even daring to respond to Charles Ives’ “Unanswered Question.” Michael Sachs is one of classical’s foremost trumpet masters and jazz trumpet master Wynton Marsalis composed his Trumpet Concerto expressly for him. The two styles meet in a mesmerizing fusion. Schumann’s Second Symphony can be heard as the symphonic bridge across the Romantic age. Influenced by Beethoven and Schubert\, it would come to influence Johannes Brahms. \nFree pre-concert talk 1 hour before.
