Bicentennial Brass Pioneers: Arban and Kosleck
01.30 | 11 a.m.
Barnes Recital Hall
Cultural Event
Jean Baptiste Arban (1825-1889) and Julius Kosleck (1825-1905) are two brass pioneers celebrating their bicentennial birthdays this year. Join Dr. Elisa Koehler as she discusses the first professor of cornet at the Paris Conservatory (Arban) who wrote the world's most influential brass method book, and the godfather of brass chamber music (Kosleck) who was one of the first to play the music of Bach on an early piccolo trumpet in the late nineteenth century. Related issued discussed will include the cultural prejudice against brass soloists during the Gilded Age, the transition from military music schools to European conservatories, and the legacies of Arban and Kosleck that continue to influence trumpeters today.
