The recital will also include “Intrada” by Arthur Honegger (Jon Kretschmer, trumpet; David Gilliland, piano), “Soliloquies” by Leslie Bassett (Meghan Merciers, clarinet), “Talking in my Sleep” by Murray Gross (Takeshi Abo, violin),“Upload” by Dan Tramte (Robert Streng, alto saxophone with electronic tape), “Velocities” by Joseph Schwanter (Stacy Jones, marimba), and selections from “Tango-Etudes” by Astor Piazzolla (Rebecca Van De Ven, oboe, David Gilliland, piano).
