The AMP Teaching Artists performed their second, free community concert today, at the Stewart-Lakewood Library in Southwest Atlanta. The program included Zelenka’s Trio Sonata #2 in G Minor (clarinet and flute playing the oboe parts) and Piazzolla’s Libertango (beautifully arranged by Cello/Bass Teaching Artist Dr. Jackie Pickett). Thank you to the Stewart-Lakewood staff for supporting AMP.  We’ll be doing more of these concerts throughout the upcoming school year, so please stay tuned for dates/venues!

Here are some samples, mixed by Clarinet Teaching Artist, Bryan Crumpler:
