FSU’s Department of Music Presents Brass Ensemble in ConcertFrostburg State University’s Department of Music will present its Brass Ensemble, conducted by Joshua Bishop, in concert on Monday, April 29, at 7:30 p.m. in the Pealer Recital Hall of FSU’s Woodward D. Pealer Performing Arts Center. This event is free and open to the public. The concert will also be livestreamed; click the “Join Stream” button on this page a few minutes before the recital is scheduled to begin, or any time during the recital, to view the live performance.Brass Ensemble personnel are MJ Harden, Joey Orr, Morgan Tichnell and Zoe Welsch on trumpets; Leah Boggs, Daniel Coughenour and Travis Walker on horns; Alex Frye on euphonium; and Zach Inglish and Jack McCoy on trombones.The program will include “Earl of Oxford’s March” by William Byrd, “Napoli” by Herman Bellstedt, “Os Justi” by Anton Bruckner, “It Is Well With My Soul” by Philip Bliss and “Legends of the Pacific” by Frank Gulino.Byrd’s “Earl of Oxford’s March” (c. 1600) is noted for the sound of field trumpets calling to each other. The composition showcases the vibrant and majestic brass instruments imitating a military march. The melodic lines and fanfare-like motifs create a grand and triumphant atmosphere.“Napoli” is perhaps the most famous solo by Sousa arranger and cornet virtuoso Bellstedt, conceived as a theme and variations on a wildly popular 19th-century song. The music is full of character, containing a stately opening theme, several excellent variations and a fiery romantic finale.“Os justi” (“The Mouth of the Righteous”) is a sacred motet composed by Bruckner in 1879. “Os Justi” is a Gregorian chant used as gradual of the “Commune Doctorum” and as introit I and gradual II of the “Commune Confessoris non Pontificis.”“It Is Well With My Soul,” aka “When Peace, Like A River,” is a hymn penned by hymnist Horatio Spafford and composed by Bliss. First published in “Gospel Hymns No. 2” in 1876, it is possibly the most influential and enduring in the Bliss repertoire and is often taken as a choral model, appearing in hymnals of a wide variety of Christian fellowships.American composer Gulino is among the most in-demand writers of chamber music and recital literature for brass instruments. He composed “Legends of the Pacific” for brass quintet or septet in 2013. It is in two parts – “In the Shadows of Mt. Shasta” and “Between the Redwoods.”For more information, contact FSU’s Department of Music at 301-687-4109.
