May 2, 2014: John Bruce Yeh, Chicago’s Own

The Chicago Clarinet Ensemble welcomes back clarinet virtuoso JOHN BRUCE YEH. In 2007, John joined CCE for our very first concert. Now, on our 7th Anniversary, he takes the stage again to perform this sensational arrangement of the Finale from Tchaikovsky’s Violin Concerto. John will also be featured on Eb clarinet in a premiere performance of Invincible Summer, a clarinet quartet composed by CCE’s Composer in Residence and Jeff Award Recipient, Leo Schwartz. Other repertoire includes the second movement of the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto performed by David Tuttle, alto saxophone; the ever popular Molly on the Shore by Grainger, and more. Please join us for this exciting and entertaining celebration of music. A Vandoren-sponsored reception to follow.
