OBU Instrumental Chamber Concert to be held April 8

April 06, 2010 - Becca Watts

The Ouachita Baptist University’s Division of Music will present the Instrumental Chamber Concert Thursday, April 8, at 7:30 p.m. in the Mabee Fine Arts Center’s McBeth Recital Hall on Ouachita’s campus.

“It is a very nice, eclectic mix of music,” said Dr. Heather Bynum, Ouachita instructor of clarinet. The evening will include pieces by such composers as G.F. Handel, Bela Bartok, Clare Grundman, Gustav Holst and Jean Philipe Rameau.

Because it is a concert purely of chamber music, Bynum said the music “emphasizes a more joint effort among the students.”

The concert will feature the Horn Ensemble directed by Heather Thayer, OBU adjunct instructor of horn, and the Trombone Ensemble directed by Dr. Josh Bynum, OBU assistant professor of trombone and low brass. The Clarinet Ensemble and two woodwind quintets will also perform, directed by Dr. Heather Bynum.
