The US Army Band, Brucker Hall
Fort Myer, Virginia
SSG Tim Sutfin Premieres New Work for
Clarinet
On Tuesday, April 10, 2012,
at 7:30pm, SSG Tim Sutfin will give the
world premiere of a new work for clarinet and piano by the American
composer Scott McAllister, as part of the Army Band-hosted Brucker
Hall Chamber Music Series.
The new concerto, given the
title "Epic Concerto" by the composer, is the result of a
co-commission by 11 professional clarinetists. At nearly an hour in
length, the piece is conceived as an entire recital program divided
into seven movements. McAllister intended the work to be either
performed in its entirety, or with individual movements performed as
stand-alone works.
"The Epic Concerto is
inspired by some of my life experiences as a clarinetist and
composer," writes McAllister in a note included in the score. The
seven movements draw on influences from former teachers and
legendary clarinet performers.
Several "premieres" of the
work have been planned, but Sutfin will give the official world
premiere at the April 10 concert. In August, he will travel to
Lincoln, NE, to perform the first three
movements of the piece, alongside other clarinetists involved in the
commission (who will perform the remaining movements), at the
International Clarinet Association's Clarinet-Fest.
Sutfin will be joined by
pianist SSG Yalin Chi of the
U.S. Military Academy Band at West Point.
Live audio from the event will be broadcast via www.usarmyband.com.

The
Annual May
Festival is performed in the Country Place Hotel, on
the Square in historic Fayetteville. With Open
Rehearsals and Pre-concert Lectures before each
Concert.
The St. Thomas Orchestra
was co-founded by Bernard Tamosaitis and Peter Arike in 2002. Among its
ranks today can be counted a broad spectrum of professionals in the arts,
sciences, law, finance, medicine, and business. Members in the orchestra
range in age from 15 to 85 and are united by a common commitment to the
pursuit of musical excellence. Over the years, we have evolved into a
uniquely diverse organization of remarkable depth and it is our privilege to
perform great symphonic music for our community. The power of music is to
transport us outside of day-to-day concerns and into an unfettered realm of
private and communal epiphany. It is our hope that the orchestra will serve
as a bridge to make great symphonic music more accessible
The
Education Programme of the Berliner
Philharmoniker is delighted to invite
passionate amateur musicians to a unique
event in the Philharmonie on our Open Day,

Music-Lovers Orchestra under the direction
of Sir Simon Rattle!We’re looking for all
amateur musicians between the ages of 11 and
99 who have been passionate players of an
instrument for at least five years, who
enjoy performing in an ensemble and have
always wanted to appear on our concert
platform.
The Programme:
Philharmonic member Stanley Dodds will be
taking over the rehearsals and will be
conducting the “public orchestra” together
with Sir Simon Rattle on the Open Day. There

Charles Neidich Soloist at Mikilov,
Poland Music Festival 18 May 2012
We will be in Helsinki to
show and discuss with clarinetists some new developments (still in process). For
example: new wood, new materials for mechanism...
...
I also want to discuss with clarinetists our new “ Mozart Clarinet”.
This is not a Basset clarinet in the common sense, but a completely new
instrument development, specific for the performance of the Mozart clarinet
concerto : a fusion of original aspects from the times of Stadler with the
requirements of contemporary clarinetists (intonation, playing comfort, concert
hall acoustics...)
If you are interested to see these developments and to participate in the
discussion about
the Mozart clarinet, please contact
me.
