Y'all come down now, hear?
Join Foothills Brass for the Calgary premier of our new touring show: BrassScapes!
May 9, 8:00pm Scarboro United Church
134 Scarboro Ave SW
Tickets: $20, $15 Student/Senior 240-0269
See what you hear! Costumes, stories and visual effects bring the music to life.
We visit the splendid Baroque era of Handel, Frescobaldi and Mouret; a transition to Gypsy life takes us to a lively Ukrainian wedding dance; Simple Gifts, the exuberant Gospel John (Maynard Ferguson) and Amazing Grace take us to intermission.
A legendary western-style battle between the trumpets begins the second half, taking us through Copland's Hoe-down, Mendez's Bullfighter's Song, The Devil Went Down to Georgia and some great Western movie themes. A quiet after-hours Café lets us explore music by Miles Davis, Bernstein and Gershwin, setting the stage for our final rousing scene: New Orleans!
