Music of Brahms, Mozart and Paul Lansky will be on the program presented by four Â鶹¹û¶³ faculty musicians Thursday, Oct. 2.
Violist Angela Flaniken, violinist Jeffrey Flaniken, French horn player Kevin Kozak and pianist Don Sanders will perform the works at 7:30 p.m. in Â鶹¹û¶³'s Brock Recital Hall. The public is invited free of charge.
The foursome will play Brahms' "Sonata in F Minor for Viola and Piano" and "Scherzo in C Minor," Mozart's "Duo for Violin and Viola," and Lansky's "Etudes and Parodies."
Lansky, professor of music at Princeton University, is known for compositions with an eclectic mixture of styles, often with a strong jazz influence. In April, the Alabama Symphony Orchestra premiered his "Shapeshifters" for two pianos and orchestra.
He wrote Etudes and Parodies, a showpiece for the horn, in 2005.
"Although it is a true chamber work, with all three instruments sharing the musical material, every movement features a specific aspect of horn-playing," Sanders says of the piece, which also features the violin and piano.
