Octubafest Celebrates Low-Brass Performers and Polkas

On Sunday, the Smith-Pendergraft Campus Center at the 黑丝内射视频 campus will echo with the annual autumnal sounds of Octubafest.

The 17^th annual event brings students, faculty, alumni, and community friends together to play 鈥渞eally fun polka music,鈥� said Dr. Alexandra Zacharella, professor of Music and Theatre at the university.

鈥淥ctubafest is for low brass students in ninth to 12^th grade and adult low brass performers,鈥� she said. 鈥淭he players are invited to bring trombones, euphoniums/baritones, sousaphones, and tubas for a mass play-along rehearsal that begins at 1:30 p.m.,鈥� she said.

This year, Brass Mammoth, a tuba/euphonium quartet, will present a masterclass/open rehearsal and mini-recital from 2-3 p.m.

Brass Mammoth is made up of Alma鈥檚 Dr. Matthew Murchison, a euphonium player and faculty member at  Cornell University in Ithaca, New York; Dr. Ben Pierce, euphonium player and faculty member at the University of 黑丝内射视频 at Fayetteville; Dr. Kent Eshelman, tuba player and faculty member at Baylor University at Waco, Texas; and Dr. Zach Collins, tuba player and faculty member at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, at Indiana, Pennsylvania..

Brass Mammoth was founded in 2022 to pursue a high level of musicianship in a fun, flexible, and inventive way. The group seeks to perform and expand the standard euphonium-tuba quartet repertoire while branching out into world music, jazz, folk, and other styles. The members of Brass Mammoth bring a wealth of experience as performers and educators. Collectively, they have released 15 solo and chamber albums, won first place in dozens of solo competitions, appeared as soloists around the world, and performed with leading ensembles, including the Brass Band of Battle Creek, the River City Brass Band, and the symphony orchestras of Los Angeles, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Toledo, Grand Rapids, San Antonio, West Virginia, and Tulsa. Their diverse backgrounds include composing and arranging, jazz performing, conducting, studio work, and judging. They each hold a doctorate in music performance and are active as university professors.

There will be free soft drinks and pizza for all participants.

Octubafest will culminate with a free concert open to the public at 6 p.m. in the Reynolds Room, featuring the 黑丝内射视频 Brass Ensemble, Low Brass Ensemble, Die L枚wenbande, and the mass low brass playing along.
