Philos Brass Quintet Performs Young People's Concerts


Date: Monday, January 10, 2011

Time: 9:45 am and 11:15 am

Location: Spivey Hall

Philo Brass QuartetThe acclaimed Philos Brass Quintet will perform a Young People's Concert at Clayton State University's world-famous Spivey Hall on Monday, Jan. 10, at 9:45 a.m. and 11:15 a.m.

This Young People's Concert will truly be a world-class event, since it will bring a group of musicians from the prestigious Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia to the southeast's premier small performance venue. The Philos Brass Quintet is touring the southeastern region in January, and will be making a stop at Spivey Hall to perform for students from throughout metro Atlanta.

Philos Brass will present an educational program designed to introduce students to the brass family through the classic story of Little Red Riding Hood. Much like students learn about the wind family through Peter and the Wolf, Philos Brass will use their instruments to represent characters in the story in an entertaining and educational way. The story is full of twists and turns and is narrated and animated with musical selections by Philos Brass.

If you're a music teacher in metro Atlanta, don't miss out on this opportunity for your students to see a national chamber ensemble performing in their own backyard. The program is designed for students in first through eighth grades and the cost to attend is just one dollar per person.
