JOHNSON CITY — The East Tennessee State University Department of Music has planned two concerts later this month at the ETSU Martin Center for the Arts.
On Friday, Nov. 18, at 7:30 p.m., the ETSU Jazz Ensemble presents Fusion Music featuring the works of Chick Corea, Herbie Hancock, Weather Report and more. Joining the band is special guest artists Justin Stanton, a graduate of ETSU and a member of the Grammy-winning band Snarky Puppy, along with new ETSU saxophone professor Brian Rodesch.
On Saturday, Nov. 19, at 7:30 p.m., the ETSU Orchestra will perform Beethoven’s Fifth Symphony, as well as several other major pieces.
“Both of these concerts are not to be missed,” said Dr. Alan Stevens, department chair. “The jazz concert will be truly amazing, and the ETSU Orchestra’s performance will be one to remember.”
