Young Artists Of The Year Concert

The Young Artists of the Year, one of Tuesday Musicale’s two major presentations

annually, features a Duo Concert by Saxophonist Brant Ford and Pianist Peyton Miller.

They are co-recipients of the Ruth Laredo “An die Musik” Award. Although the

saxophone is infrequently heard in traditional concert repertoire, the instrunment’s

flexibility of tone and range make it well-suited for adaptations of many works in the

treble range. Their program includes the Sonata No. 2 in E-flat Major by Brahms, the

Sonata in A Major by Franck, and Three Intermezzi by Poulenc. The program will close

with their performance of Schubert’s immortal song, “An die Musik.” Tickets are required

for this program; An Afterglow follows the concert.
