Wind Ensemble Of San
Francisco Symphony To
Play In Nome May 13
Many in the community are
looking forward to the arrival on
May 13 of the Wind Ensemble of
the San Francisco Symphony,
whose appearance here is being
sponsored by the Rotary Club.
A brilliant program of compo
sition by both classic and modern
masters will be presented by the
distinguished group in their con
cert Friday, May 13, at the Nome
School Auditorium.
The first part of the program
will display two contrasting quin
tets—one by the 19th Century
composer Antoine Reicha, who
was professor of the Paris Con
servatory at the time of Chopin
and Liszt, and who, in his crea
tive output, contributed greatly
to the literature for wind instru
ments;—and one by the contem
porary master Paul Hindemith,
whose music is one of the pillars
of modern art.
The varied fare of the second
part of the program will include
one of the most graceful and ele
gant works for the winds, a quar
tet by Rossini. The quartet will
bb followed by the short “Mu
sette” by Pfeiffer, scored for a
trio of oboe, clarinet and bassoon.
The final group will be dedicated
to the French composers, in an
array of short quintets by Pierne,
Milhaud and Ibert.
