A 30-minute "mini-concert" featuring my colleagues from One World Symphony. I'll be playing trumpet in this brass quintet program. The concert is in Brooklyn at Sacred Hearts & St. Stephen Church, which was the 1st Italian parish in Brooklyn; this program is an "Epiphany Concert" celebrating the church's 125th anniversary, and will include music honoring the church's Italian heritage, and festive Christmas music, too. This is a very good group - trumpeters are myself and Angela Gosse; on horn is Douglas Lyons (you've heard him on "The Simpsons" and countless other soundtracks, as well as occasional appearances in the Los Angeles Philharmonic); the trombones are Hitomi Yakata and Patrick Herb (Pat has recently performed with both the Cleveland Orchestra and the New York Philharmonic!) Free admission. Corner of Summit & Hicks Streets, Brooklyn New York.

A 30-minute "mini-concert" featuring my friends Thomas Jostlein, Tricia Jostlein, my spouse Angela Gosse, and me. I'll be playing both trumpet and organ. The concert is in Brooklyn at Sacred Hearts & St. Stephen Church. Sacred Hearts was the 1st Italian parish in Brooklyn; this program is an "Advent Concert" celebrating the church's 125th anniversary, and will include music honoring the church's Italian heritage, and festive music to kick off the Christmas season. Thomas is the Assistant Principal Horn of the New York Philharmonic, Tricia was formerly Principal Horn in the Omaha Symphony, Angela has performed with New World Symphony in Miami, so this is a really good group. We'll be playing quartets, solos, etc. The old Kilgen Pipe Organ (31 ranks, over 2,000 pipes!) will have a thorough demonstration, too. Free admission. Corner of Summit & Hicks Streets, Brooklyn New York.

I'll be playing with One World Symphony. Conducted by Sung Jin Hong, One World Symphony has been dubbed "New York's Hippest Orchestra" by the critics. It's our season opener, an innovative program called "Uptown vs. Downtown" - Music by Puccini, Larson, Ives, Cage, Carter, Reich, Corigliano, and a world premiere by Jihwan Kim. I'll be playing principal trumpet for this concert, and will have the solo in Ives' Unanswered Question. The maestro is full of surprises, and these concerts are always a lot of fun for musicians & audience alike. Friday November 16th is 8pm in Brooklyn Heights (St. Ann & The Holy Trinity Church - corner of Montague & Clinton Streets). There is a 2nd performance on Sunday Nov. 18th at 4pm on the Upper West Side (Ansche Chesed Synagogue - corner of W. 100 Street & West End Avenue).
