The live concert I attended was the Dana Concert Series Presents: Faculty and Guest Artist Recital at the College of Creative Arts and Communication. The venue was BlissRecital Hall. The recital featured faculty artists Dr. James Umble on saxophone and Dr. Glenn Schaft on vibraphone. The Cleveland Orchestra's guest artists were Art Klima on viola, Stephen Warner on violin, Carolyn Warner on piano, and Richard Weiner on percussion. Modern and late romantic style music was the theme of the live performance. The musical style was evident due to the unconventional harmony and tonality of the music associated with modern era music. The late Romantic musical style was evident thanks to the natural and mysterious sounding pieces that identify with that musical period. The highlight of the show was the world premiere of “Verses” for soprano by Vache Sharafyan, recreated for saxophone and performed by Dr. James Umble on soprano saxophone and Dr. Glenn Schaft on vibraphone. Performing “Verses” was a great live experience where the timbre of the instruments and the actions of the artists were mesmerizing. The first section of the program featured the Hindemith Trio, for viola, Heckelphone or tenor saxophone and piano, op. 47. This is a modern dramatic piece in two movements, played with elegance and passion. The next work performed was Sharafyan's "Verses" for soprano saxophone and vibraphone. The intimate feeling of the two-instrument performance was indicative of chamber music. The two artists' ability to perform the piece was inspiring and exciting. The last piece before intermission was Sato's Stream of Life for soprano saxophone... middle of the paper... skill and ability to incorporate himself into the piece he had at hand. His performance as a pianist greatly impressed me as a listener. The concert space, while very beautiful, was extremely hot on the day of the recital, which made the experience a bit uncomfortable. Overall, however, the intimate lighting and dynamics of the recital hall made the show a beautiful experience. Works Cited "Préludes". The Oxford Companion to Music. Oxford Music Online.
