Day 18.332: Second concert

As I mentioned, we did not have to wait long for the second of E5N1’s college performances. This time Exile #3 joined us and we ran into two of E5N1’s old school friends (one still in high school and the other at the same college) who had come to see the performance. 

Today it was the Composers Showcase - the final performance for the class called Composers Ensemble which starts the semester with a group of student musicians and student composer/musicians but no music and gradually builds to this performance of all new pieces. 

E5N1 sang, played trumpet and even did some percussion  and the group played one of his compositions which was excellent.

The pieces were very varied - a lot of experimental atonal music, but also some jazz, a piece reminiscent of The Beatles and a show-ending prog rock number. E5N1’s was one of the more traditional-sounding pieces - no mean achievement in itself with this slightly curious assemblage of instruments.
