You don’t know that it is a fifty year old instrument that is a little like a tuba, only smaller and has a higher pitch? On January 23 the well-known local Euphonium player, Jason Ham ( in his ninth year with the West Point Band) gave us a wonderful cross-section of pieces on the Euphonuium last Sunday, January 23 at The Grand Montgomery Chamber Music & Theater Series at the Montgomery Senior Center. With humor and grace, Ham played Taffanel to Gershwin and thrilled the mostly senior audience with his narrative talents as well. Ruthanne Schempf was on the piano and Bonnie Ham on the flute and between the three of them we were treated to several masterful duets. For treats that are FREE, show up for the next concert on March 13th which features classical marimba player, Nagano Makoto. To learn more, go to: www.villageofmontgomery.org click on “Our Community” and then “Music and Theater” to see the fine array of free performances throughout the year.
Well done. Many thanks for the kind words about the concert.

Glad to do it. Love, Roanne
