ROCO Brass Quintet “Crossing over the English Channel” | Houston | Concert / Show | George Chase |
Program 2 (Jan. 27 at the MATCH, Jan. 29 at The Woodlands UMC)
“Crossing over the English Channel”
In their second quintet program, the musicians of the RBQ will perform works of composers from either side of the English Channel (U.K. and France.) Summer Dances by William Mathias is a very lively work in 6 movements. Mathias’ contemporary, Alun Hoddinott, also wrote a very charming work for brass quintet, about 8 years earlier than Mathias, based on Welsh nursery tunes. Patrice Caratini is a French jazz bassist who wrote a wonderful work for quintet, Passages, which crosses over between jazz and classical styles of music.
