NYTMers,

I hope that somebody will go to these performances and give us a full report: http://www.playbillarts.com/news/article/4230.html

2 bits of trivia: Ellen Taaffe Zwilich was a producer for Delos records before gaining her well deserved reputation as a composer. Gerry Schwarz' SOUND OF TRUMPETS (which I believe was Delos' Opus 1) was produced by Ellen. I played mostly unnoticed second trumpet on this CD, by the way, and it was Gerry's last before handing the reins of the New York Trumpet Ensemble to me.

Also, Bram Tovey has a huge reputation as a conductor of English brass bands in addition to his post as MD of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.

Watching here,
EC
