A successful mus1c1an, composer, scholar and educator, Byrd has been well known in many musical facets since 1955. The Delaware Brass Quintet opens the Friday night concert for Byrd, a trumpeter, with "MissMissippi Rag." This number, a ragtime, roaring '20s tune with upbeat jazz flavor, is dedicated to Byrd's father, a Methodist minister. After the applause dies down, trombon ist Jay Hildebrandt introduces the rest of the quintet. The faculty musicians include Alan Hamant and James Hala, trumpets; Cynthia Carr, horn; and Alan Start, tuba. The quintet performs two hymn inspired songs, "Come Thou, Almighty King" and "A Mighty Fortress is Our God." After these somber pieces mellow the crowd, !'Christo Redentor," rewritten by Byrd for brass band, brings things up to tempo with its big band jazz sound. The quintet's semicircle is then THE REVIEW I Christopher Bonn replaced by a setup for the trumpet, trom bone, saxophone and bass players.
