This presentation AND performance will introduce you to a number of authenic period instruments which show the evolution of the French horn and its music.
Roy Schaberg taught the horn for 31 years at the Crane School of Music, SUNY Potsdam. He is a former principal horn of the Lexington Philharmonic, the Memphis Symphony, the Vermont Symphony, and the Orchestra of Northern NY (ONNY). He is a founding member of the Potsdam Brass and Woodwind Quintets, and the founding director of Crane Youth Music. Roy was twice artist-host of the International Horn Symposium, in 1981 and again in 1987. This presentation is a result of a sabbatical to study horn at the Smithsonian Institute with curator Robert Sheldon.
Roy will be assisted by his wife, Gail Schaberg (also a member of the ONNY), and by Michael Sitton (Dean of Music, Crane School of Music).
