OMG!!!!!

Going to be a long, but worthwhile, concerto concert!

 

[Angel]

I'm assuming one would fly into Buffalo and drive to Fredonia? I'll come if I can.

Angel

 

[srcsax]

Yes, It's a short drive to Fredonia from Buffalo. Wish i could come. I miss Wildy Z!

 

[Kevin]

An 8 hour drive from Louisville...no way I'll miss this!

 

[BobbyC]

That's not more that a few hours from me.
It would be great for the kids too.

I'll see if we can work this in.

 

[JMDSax]

Wow! Hope I can make it to that. I'll be starting my freshman year at Duquesne in Pittsburgh...I don't think that is too far away.

 

[Rackety Sax]

I got to thinking about this - it could be a Really Big Show as Ed Sullivan used to say. I hope they have a large auditorium.

 

[Saxgal137]

Oh we have a HUGE Concert Hall. And the acustics are fantastic. Not to mention the Chamber Orchestra is very good as well. I am really looking forward to it all.

 

[J.Max]

A friend of my wife's, Jim Davis, is a professor of musicology up there. I've been trying to get her to take me with her the next time she presents a paper there. As much as I disagree with a lot of Rascher's philosophy, I'd love to see that archive!

 

[Dannel]

Man you better believe I'll be flying up from FSU for this and attending.

 

[Rick]

Man, I wish I could make that. I hope it's recorded professionally and made available.

 

[mkemp]

Man, I wish I could make that. I hope it's recorded professionally and made available.

I was thinking the same thing! That's such a good line up of players/songs.

 

[Angel]

I didn't notice any songs, but it's a nice list of concerti. I really wish that they would have Paul Cohen performing the original version of the Dahl in addition to the other fine performers/repertoire. That would be very fitting for a Rascher centennial.

[Kevin]

That's exactly what I was thinking...I was also hoping to see the original Brant concerto...there's no reason why they can't have two nights of multiple concerto's!

 

[rascherian]

?

As much as I disagree with a lot of Rascher's philosophy

not to stir up any ill feelings, I'm just curious as to which philosophies you don't agree with?

 

[BobbyC]

They don't have any prices listed yet.

Anyone have an educated guess as to what this will cost?

 

[MusicMedic]

This is an event that no saxophonist should miss! I'll see you folks there.

 

[Migraine777]

Holy #$&(% ...I'm there. Florida to NY sucks but whatever...and it'll be cold.....bleh....anyway

HEY....let's all wear some sort of SoTW pin or nameplate or something and get together during or after the show!


Secondly, Curt...I need to send you a horn anyway, maybe this could save me on shipping!? :twisted: :twisted:
