SUMMARY:Red Clay Saxophone Quartet
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Event Name: Red Clay Saxophone Quartet=0D=0AEvent Url: http://www.gotriadscene.com/event/detail/19829=0D=0AEvent Date Begin: 2010-02-12=0D=0AEvent Date End: 2010-02-12=0D=0A=0D=0AThe Red Clay Saxophone Quartet joins with the Tango Duo to present an evening of tangos. Associated with the city of Buenos Aires, Argentino, from the late 1800s, the tango declined in popularity in the 1960s and 1970s but has been revived during the late 1980s by a new generation of musicians. Never Too Tango!, as the program is entitled, presents a number of tango arrangements that explore a diversity of colors, some of them associated with the traditional tango and others with more adventurous instrumentations representing a new sound world. The four saxophonists, all internationally recognized, perform widely and count numerous CDs to their credit. Susan Fancher has worked with numerous composers to develop the repertoire for the saxophone through commissions and publication of transcriptions. Robert Faub, an accomplished classical soloist, chamber musician, and jazz artist, is in great demand both as a teacher and as a performer. Steven Stusek, a member of the UNCG faculty, has won many awards and competitions, both in the United States and in the Netherlands. Mark Engebretson, of the UNCG composition faculty, is well represented as a composer and performer not only in the United States but also in Vienna and Stockholm where he formerly resided. Lorena Guillén, a native of Buenos Aires, Argentina, is equally at home as performer of “art” music and of tango, which she performs in numerous venues here and abroad. Alejandro Rutty, of the UNCG composition faculty, serves as arranger and pianist for Argentine-Tango performances. This concert is sponsored by Lincoln Financial.=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:7:30 p.m.
