Black Is Beautiful!
​Members of the Great Noise Ensemble

African American composers’ approach to modern classical music (with more than a hint of jazz and blues)

Sunday November 10, 4:00 pm (Resurrection Church)
Tuesday November 12, 7:30 pm (Riderwood Chapel)

The Great Noise Ensemble will perform pieces written by African American composers : some trios for violin, cello, and piano, as well as for alto sax, tuba, and piano. These works take classical music and blend them with the tantalizing harmonies and rhythms of jazz and blues. Included will be a new work composed by Resurrection’s own tuba player, Blair Goins. It’s an exciting program of music not to be missed!
Featured will be Blair Goins (tuba), Hilary Van Wagenen (piano), Anthony Shields (violin), Michelle Acton (alto saxophone), Jason Solounias (piano) and Tim Thulson (cello).
