Cal Poly Music Department faculty members will be featured in a Faculty Showcase recital at 6:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 31, in Room 218 of the Davidson Music Center (No. 45) on campus.
The event is part of Cal Poly’s Mustang Family Weekend and it will include instrumental applied faculty who are recognized across the region for their expertise in solo and chamber ensemble performance. They will present intimate works that highlight their artistic achievements.
New faculty member and Los Angeles-based flutist Jennifer Jo will make her Cal Poly debut with pianist Idona Cabrinha in a performance Astor Piazzolla’s “Night Club 1960” from “Histoire du Tango.”
Violinists Emily Lanzone and Grace Seng will play a movement from Sergey Prokofiev’s “Sonata for Two Violins,” Op. 56; pianist Janet Joichi will perform two movements from Frédéric Chopin’s “Piano Sonata No. 2 in B-flat Minor,” Op. 35; and Christopher J. Woodruff, trumpet, and Stephen Nutt, tuba, will play a movement from Eugene Anderson’s “Baroque 'N Brass.”

Music majors at Cal Poly are required to be enrolled in applied or private lessons each quarter. Many non-music majors who are enrolled in larger ensembles — including Cal Poly Symphony, Wind Bands and University Jazz Bands — also have lessons with faculty.
Presented on Halloween, there won’t be any tricks, but there will be many aural treats, and candy will be available.
Admission is $10 general, and $5 students at the door. Parking is free after 5 p.m. in the Grand Avenue parking structure (No. 130). For more information on parking on campus, visit Cal Poly’s Transportation and Parking Services website.
