Octubafest at The University of Akron

[LARSONTUBA]

That's right! The first Octubafest post of the 2013 season.

At this point, all I have are the dates on which tuba related concerts will occur. They are as follows:

Octuba 17 - Dr. Andy Larson, faculty tuba recital
Octuba 21 - tuba/euphonium studio soloists?
Octuba 23 - Akron tuba/euphonium ensemble?
Novemtuba 1 - guest artist recital?

All concerts will be at 8PM in Guzzetta Recital Hall on the campus of The University of Akron.

The final three concerts may get switched around, depending on what I am able to work out as far as guest artists go. I will announce more as I am able. Thanks for reading and, if you are in the area, I hope to see you at these concerts!
