Tarleton wind ensemble presents year’s first concert
Oct. 8, 2008
STEPHENVILLE, TEXAS—Tarleton State University’s wind ensemble will present its first concert of the year on Mon., Oct. 20, at 7:30 p.m in the Clyde H. Wells Fine Arts Center auditorium. The ensemble is comprised of Tarleton’s finest brass, percussion and woodwind players. It is the premiere instrumental concert ensemble of the university.
Billed as “Music that goes bump in the night,” the concert will include several symphonic thrillers including “Bacchanale and Entry of Phryne” from “Faust”; “The Battle of Shiloh”; and, “The Universal Judgment.” Tarleton woodwind professor Greg Ball will be featured in a performance of Allesandra Stardella’s “Aria di chiesa – Pieta Signore” and Tarleton’s associate band director, Richard R. Bahner, will guest conduct the Minuet from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Symphony No. 39 in E-flat. A meet and greet reception will follow the concert.
This concert marks the first performance of the ensemble led by new faculty member Dr. Reginald M. Houze. Previously, Houze served on the faculties at the University of Southern Mississippi and Clemson University.
"The students of the wind ensemble represent the most talented musicians on the Stephenville campus,” Houze said. “This particular program is quite demanding and the ensemble has been working hard, on a rather limited rehearsal schedule. We look forward to the opportunity to perform for Tarleton and the Stephenville community.”
General admission is $5. Free admission is granted to public school band members and directors as well as Tarleton staff, students and faculty with presentation of valid Texan Card.
For more information, contact Houze at (254) 968-9242.
