Vanguard Reed Quintet

  • 300 North Washington Street Ypsilanti, MI, 48197 United States (map)

In this concert, the audience will experience contemporary classical chamber music performed by the oboe, clarinet, saxophone, bass clarinet, and bassoon. The concert opens with a theatrical overture by Italian Baroque composer Pietro Antonio Locatelli. Following that, we present two works by Peruvian-American composer Daniel Cueto: Amaru, a musical portrait of an Incan mythological figure; and Momentos Peruanos, a collection inspired by traditional Peruvian dances. We close with Jeff Scott's Homage to Paradise Valley, a tribute to a historically Black and musically rich neighborhood in Detroit. Featuring guest bassoonist Daniel Zaldana.
