Ni Ensemble Performs Turner Works in Scotland

Posted By on October 12, 2010

The Ni Ensemble, an award winning brass quintet based in Luxembourg, is presently on tour in Scotland. They will be performing three of my compositions. The quintet is playing “Kaitsenko”, a brooding tone-poem about the infamous American-Indian (Kiowa) fighting brotherhood. The trio will be playing “Bandera”, a somewhat lighter piece of my youth- cowboys and adventure! And Kristina is presenting a piece for solo horn called “Phantom Shanties”. This piece is one of the book of 9 solos and was commissioned by the Rotterdam Maritime Museum as a gift to it’s retiring curator.

So if you want to hear this marvelous quintet, and be doused with a heavy dose of “turnerism”, find out where in your neighborhood they are playing. The will be in Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Helensburgh. For more information, check out their website:
