Event: Posuane Decuple 2018

[TriJim]

The April 29 (2018) program at the Glencairn Museum (North of Philadelphia), in tribute to the late Glenn Dodson, included works by J.S. Bach, Anthony DiLorenzo, G.F. Handel, Tommy Pederson, Steven Verhelst and more.

An outstanding program with precise execution and delicious harmonies - a true tour de force. In addition to the arrangements for 10-12 trombones, the program featured separate presentations by quartets from NY Phil and Philadelphia Orchestra. The 'Theme from Superman' played as an encore to a standing ovation.

When I heard about this program, it sounded almost too good to be true. I'm glad you got to be there.

Sounds like a pretty good pick-up band.

I think a battle of the bones would have been pretty cool: New York versus Philadelphia. Was Jim Nova the only player from Pittsburgh there?

Blair Bollinger introduced his quartet by saying it was hard to follow the NY Phil, but they were the 'home team' (Glencairn Museum is North of Philadelphia). Got a good laugh from the audience.

Yes, only Jim Nova from Pittsburgh, but he represented well.

Back in the '80s, I briefly lived near Bryn Athyn. I can assure you, nothing this cool ever happened back then.
