NORFOLK, Neb. – A Touch of Brass, a five-piece brass quintet, will perform a concert later this month on the Northeast Community College campus.
The program will be held Sunday, Jan. 26, at 2 p.m., in the Cox Activities Center Theatre, 801 E. Benjamin Ave.
The concert, sponsored by the Northeast Music Department, will consist of a variety of styles. The program is quite eclectic with selections from the Baroque period to pieces from the Beatles. Selections will include Just a Closer Walk With, Bach's Fugue in G Minor, A Big Band Montage, and a little something from Stevie Wonder.
