NEVADA ENCOUNTERS OF NEW MUSIC

by ed bruce edbrucevegas@yahoo.com

I have been using this old Frankie Valli line...."all the great music has been written" for a decade now.....well...... maybe not quite all the great music....maybe all the great music for vocals. Lets tweak this a schooish !

Young and old classical music composers gathering at UNLV this week to unveil their new works.

5 performances...first at the downtown 5th street school auditorium....late...great acoustics...one piece by Victor Baley...90 minutes..... unique.... six pieces with world class young muscians...2 strings get me there......I liked it.

92 A-

Remaining shows at Doc Rando Hall at UNLV....Wednesday 6 minutes late....54 minute program ....again all young muscians....(some Julliard)...kicked off by an outstanding violin solo....rest also good...highly recommended....free....nobody goes...30 in the audience....starts late..great sound...no crying babies...go !

94 A
