The University of Louisiana Monroe School of Visual and Performing Arts hosts the Allumer Quartet in a guest concert at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday at Emy-Lou Biedenharn Recital Hall. The quartet will also present a master class for music students at 11 a.m. in the recital hall.
The Allumer Quartet is a horn quartet based in Baton Rouge. The members are Centria Brown, Tom Fish, Evan McAleer, and Kyle Peterson.
“Allumer” is Cajun French and means “to light” or “ignite.” Allumer’s mission is to expand the horn quartet repertoire and in so doing ignite greater passion in their listeners.
Their program will include works by Alexander Mitushin, Eugène Bozza, and Béla Bartók, as well as the world premiere of two new works by Marc Mellits and Guy Mintus.
Admission is free and open to the public.
