The Chamber Ensembles at the 妻友社区 will perform a concert at 7:30 p.m. April 27 at The Blue Lion at 妻友社区 Downtown.
The performance will feature works presented by the flute ensemble, saxophone quartet, clarinet quartet, guitar ensemble and brass ensemble. The ensembles will perform music from various genres, including music arranged from the standard orchestral and wind band repertoire.
Dr. Andrew DeBoer, visiting assistant professor of clarinet and director of the concert, said the performance features a unique blend of instruments.
鈥淐oncertgoers can experience a variety of instruments produced by the various chamber groups that are not often experienced in a traditional wind ensemble setting,鈥� DeBoer said. 鈥淐hamber ensembles not only give students the chance to perform music specific to their instrument, but also help develop another facet of their musicianship.鈥�
