From the Page to the Air: New Composers, New Beginnings

With help from fellow musicians, HSU students pursuing a degree in Composition move their notes from the page to the air, in a concert of new work dubbed “New Beginnings,” on Saturday, November 15 in the Fulkerson Recital Hall.

“They’re experimenting with both new and old musical approaches,” said Dr. J. Brian Post, HSU professor of Music Theory and Composition. “Their music contains influences from American folk, jazz and rock and roll as well as European art music from Mozart’s time to the present.”

Featured composers for this recital include Joanne Rand, Louie Ochoa, Mark Jensen, Greg Moore, Anna Pinsky and Dennis Astley. Their music will be performed by HSU student and faculty players.

”New Beginnings” begins at 8 p.m. on Saturday, November 15 in the Fulkerson Recital Hall on the HSU campus in Arcata. Tickets are $7 general, $3 students/seniors, from the HSU Ticket Office (826-3928) or at the door. Free to HSU students with ID.
