"Invisible Garden: Four Pieces for Woodwind Quintet & Jazz Trio." A composition by Cassio Vianna.
Performed by PLU Music Faculty: Jennifer Rhyne (flute), Shelly Myers (oboe), Craig Rine (clarinet), Gina Gillie (french horn), Francine Peterson (bassoon), Cassio Vianna (piano), Clipper Anderson (bass), Mark Ivester (drums).
For this Tacoma Arts Initiative Project, Cassio composed a 4-movement suite combining jazz, Brazilian popular music, and classical chamber music. “I have built my musical career in the intersection of jazz, popular, and classical traditions, and I have found that the blend of musical styles enhances creativity, broadens the possibility of collaboration, and reaches a larger audience, thus serving as a perfect metaphor for a healthy, diverse society,” he explains. The newly composed piece will be 20 minutes in length, featuring a combination of a jazz trio (piano, bass, drums) and a classical woodwind quintet (flute, clarinet, oboe, French horn, and bassoon).
Project funded by the Tacoma Arts Commission.
Free admission.
