Duckwall Artist Series: Dana Zenobi, soprano with Megan Boutin, trombone and Li-Wen Weng, piano
October 17, 2023 @ 7:30pm
Join Butler faculty Dana Zenobi (soprano) and Li-Wen Weng (piano) as they collaborate with guest trombonist Megan Boutin (Texas A&M University Commerce) to explore unique chamber works that contrast the timbres of the soprano voice and the trombone. Repertoire ranges from Baroque to modern and includes pieces by living composers. Listeners will enjoy works by Emperor Joseph I of Austria, Antonio Caldara, Eric Ewazen, Matthew Herman, Ashley H. Kraft, David Pegel, and Libby Larsen. Some works pair only soprano and trombone, while others have a fuller texture including soprano, trombone, and piano or harpsichord. Styles and moods encompass a wide range of moods from virtuosic and jubilant to comic to lyrical and brooding. We welcome listeners to enjoy this unusual but beautiful combination of sounds.
This performance is free and open to the public, no ticket is required.
