(MURFREESBORO)—The MTSU Stones River Chamber Players (SRCP), artists-in-residence at MTSU, will perform a concert titled "Not the Usual Three B's" at 7:30 p.m. March 26 in the T. Earl Hinton Music Hall of the Wright Music Building on the MTSU campus.
“When a musician refers to the ‘Three B's,’ he usually means Bach, Beethoven and Brahms,” explained Todd Waldecker, associate professor of clarinet at MTSU and co-director for the group. “The SRCP program, ‘Brass, Beaser, Beethoven: Not the Usual Three B's’ is, of course, a play on this familiar ‘Three B's’ phrase.”
The Monday evening concert will feature selections from Robert Beaser’s Mountain Songs for flute and guitar, Beethoven’s Quintet for piano and winds, Op. 16, and brass selections by Anthony Plog and Don Freund performed by the MTSU Faculty Brass Quintet.
Musicians for this concert include Lynn Rice-See (piano), Bill Yelverton (guitar), Deanna Hahn-Little (flute), Michael Ardnt (trumpet), Jeff Bailey (trumpet), Radu Rasu (horn) David Loucky (trombone), Gilbert Long (tuba), Dewayne Pigg (oboe), Maya Stone (bassoon), and Todd Waldecker (clarinet).
SRCP comprises a dozen plus players who divide into multiple configurations to present an exciting variety of chamber music.
The March 26 concert is free and the public is encouraged to attend.
