Brass Quintet in a National Park

The Grand Teton Music Festival recently wrapped up. Some fine folks made a recording for Performance Today. The recording was made out in the middle of Grand Teton National Park. This really makes the video version required to enjoy the amazing scenery. 

The quintet includes:

Trumpet: Thomas Hooten, Jennifer Marotta

Horn: Gail Williams

Trombone: Michael Mulcahy

Tuba: Craig Knox

 

The performance is two movements from John Stevens' Seasons Quintet. Performing movements names Summer and Autumn seems appropriate given the setting here. The group, as expected, is a pleasure to listen to. Enjoy!

Sarah Willis interviews Michael Mulcahy

Sarah Willis interviews Michael Mulcahy as part of her Horn Hangouts series. It's great fun hearing Mulcahy tell his story from his native Sydney. It's hard to think of a better setting for this. Our favorite quote from this:

“Nothing of value happens because you’re a good person, you make it happen”
