PATRICK REYNOLDS conductor
­DPO BRASS & ­PERCUSS­ION SECTIONS

Transcriptions of works written for one set of instruments into a different setting can reveal completely new aspects of color and mood. Here, conductor Reynolds turns the DPO brass and percussion players loose on a program that is as varied as any you've ever heard. Martial music, song-like settings, Asian textures an­d even a Broadway suite are all fair game for this unique excursion.

Dr. Charles & Patricia Demirjian are the Chamber Series sponsor.

Special Thanks to our Chamber partners: Dave Boston of Boston's Bistro at the Gypsy, Mercy Siena Retirement Community, Basically British, and Boston Stoker.
