The Hendersonville Symphony Orchestra’s principal brass quintet, Larry Black and Chris Imhoff on Trumpet, Anneka Zuehlke-King on Horn, Mark Britt on Trombone and Michael Taylor on Tuba continues our celebration of the American spiritual and Jazz more generally. Highlights include Crys Armbrust’s “Fanfare for Nina,” which was written for the dedication of the Nina Simone sculpture in her Tryon, NC birthplace. Simone herself recorded several versions of the spiritual “Take Me to the Water,” which is the basis of a new arrangement of the tune by Keelan Lovvorn. Leonard Bernstein’s “Dance Suite for Brass Quintet,” which consists of five portraits of icons of American dance which was the legendary composer’s final work. The concert will conclude with several rollocking tunes straight out of the birthplace of Jazz in New Orleans.
