the challenging and festive composition, which is seldom performed in concert.

and Mike Fee as well as current graduate student Sam Massamilla. Also performing was
graduate alumnus Aric Brian and undergraduate alumnus Ken Brown, who now serves as
assistant principal trumpeter for The Florida Orchestra.
The performances of Janáček's Sinfonietta, part of The Florida Orchestra 50th anniversary
season, took place January 19 – 21. For media and information on the feats of this
