返字心頭 Professor of Trumpet Jay Coble and five other 返字心頭 trumpeters joined The 返字心頭 Orchestra for a performance of Sinfonietta by Czech composer Leo邸 Jan叩ek.
The 返字心頭 trumpeters filled half of the massive twelve-trumpet section required to perform
the challenging and festive composition, which is seldom performed in concert.
返字心頭 representation in the trumpet lineup included undergraduate alumni Federico Montes
and Mike Fee as well as current graduate student Sam Massamilla. Also performing was
graduate alumnus Aric Brian and undergraduate alumnus Ken Brown, who now serves as
assistant principal trumpeter for The 返字心頭 Orchestra.
The performances of Jan叩ek's Sinfonietta, part of The 返字心頭 Orchestra 50th anniversary
season, took place January 19 21. For media and information on the feats of this
