John Elliott and I played a series of educational outreach shows at Palmyra-Macedon Primary School this past Monday. Our two-man-band put on a show including tubas, electric bass, and vocals and featured improvisation, rock tunes, and video game music!

If anyone is in upstate New York, come check out the New York premiere (and I think 3rd performance) of Dodecafecta by James Stephenson next Wednesday, April 13 at 8 PM in the Eastman Theater. It’s free and open to the public. The Wind Ensemble will also be playing Maslanka’s 2nd Symphony on the program. Don’t worry, Dodecafecta is not a twelve tone work, but is referring to the original consortium of 12 brass quintets that commissioned the piece!

Here are links to the parties involved:

The Composer
The Emerald Brass
The Eastman Wind Ensemble

Come on out and see the newly renovated “Kodak Hall at Eastman Theater”
