I’m very excited to announce that I will be performing a World Premiere of composer Ross Wright’s piece “Sue’s Night on the Town” for Flute and Wind Ensemble next Sunday, April 14th.
“Sue’s Night on the Town” is a one-movement flute concerto, composed in 2018 by Ross Wright, especially for me. I will be performing it with the 90-piece L.A. Symphonic Winds, conducted by Steve Piazza. For those of you who know Ross’s music, this is another one of his wild rides!
“Sue’s Night on the Town” will be featured as part of the annual “Stars of the L.A. Winds” concert. This concert will feature several composers, soloists, arrangers and conductors from the ensemble.
A couple other exciting pieces on the program are:
“Sir David” by Charles Fernandez, and Malcolm Arnold’s “Tam O’Shanter,” program music based on Robert Burn’s epic poem. Susan Craig Winsberg and Karen Milne (from Scotland) will be reciting excerpts of the poem in advance of the piece. For those of you who don’t know the story of Tam O’ Shanter, you’re in for a treat!
