WANTED: skilled french horn player for newly-formed woodwind quintet

I'm seeking a skilled french horn player for my newly-formed woodwind quintet. We aim to perform a variety of intermediate/advanced wind quartet and quintet repertoire, including classical, modern/new works and pops pieces.  

The quintet's members live all over northeast Ohio.  We are currently rehearsing on alternating Sundays in Lakewood, but are somewhat flexible with this.

The ideal horn player will have a lovely tone, good sight-reading ability, fairly wide note range, competent technique and be comfortable with some transposition on sight (as often needed when playing older works that include Eb rather than F horn.

As our instrumentation/instrumental tone color is already askew from tradition: we include a second flute player in place of an oboist... other instrument options (e.g alto saxophone) may also be considered.

For more information or to meet us/sit in at an upcoming rehearsal you may contact Brandyn by text or voice: (440) 332.7763 #classical #rehearsals #instrumentation #frenchhorn

Ian Clarke: Hatching Aliens 2

What an AMAZING piece of music! I love Ian Clarke's work. If you don't know him, you'll definitely want to take a listen to the video below. He is a 21st century/modern (and still living) composer who writes mainly solo and chamber flute music using extended techniques such as quarter-tones, multiphonics, singing while playing, breathy tone, key slaps and more. Ian Clarke is *THE* guy for 21st century avant-garde flute music.

Flightpath for Flute Solo : pre-premiere demo

Preview my new composition for flute solo!   "Flightpath" will have its official world premiere on my upcoming recital (Feb 23, Cleveland,) but you can hear it first! 

This is a demo of the flute part only.  The complete score includes piano accompaniment, and will be performed accompanied at its premier.

Written in the early part of 2018, Flightpath is one my more recent compositions. The piece opens with a question: “where am I going?” The placid flute solo is juxtaposed with a sparse and poignant piano accompaniment.  Suddenly, there is a

flurry of activity as the performers rushes toward their unknown destination
hectically, much in the way that an agitated insect would behave when trying to
escape.  However, upon arrival, the initial question resurfaces, leaving us to wonder if we really got anywhere at all. Digital or print scores may be ordered at http://bit.ly/2GteDZs.

TWO: A Recital

Flutists Jacquie Oliveri and Brandyn Metzko will present “TWO: a Recital” at Archwood United Church of Christ (2800 Archwood Ave., Cleveland) on Saturday, February 23^rd at 7:00 P.M. The event is free and open to the public.  Light refreshments will be served.

The program will feature solo and duet works by Marais, de la Barre, Bach, Doppler, Bolling, Kuhlau and others, including the world premiere of two new compositions by Brandyn Metzko. Pianist Erik Stalcup and drummer Jill Bacon will accompany several of the works.

While they have performed together in larger ensembles for many years, this is their first time performing as a flute duo. “I’m very excited to share this music,” said flutist and composer Brandyn Metzko.  “and [Jacquie] is an inspiration to work with both musically and personally.”
