Percussion around the World
Sunday | February 9
3 p.m. | Dingeldine Music Center
The Bradley University Department of Music and the Bradley Percussion Ensemble present “Percussion around the World” as a part of the Music Scholarship Concert Series. This concert will showcase classic arrangements by Irv Cottler, the original drummer for Frank Sinatra, and Dinah Shore. These arrangements were recorded on LP Vinyl in 1962 as one of the first “stereophonic” albums to showcase this “new technology.” These arrangements, however, have never been performed live outside of the recording studio, making this concert performance a world premiere. Tickets are $10 for adults and are available at the door. Student admission is free.
