Abstract
In fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree Master of Arts, Dwayne L. Johnson presented a solo trumpet recital on Monday, April 16, 1973 in Russell Hallo Mr. Johnson was assisted by Rachel Johnson, Ann Anway, Keith Johnson, and a brass quintet. The recital program was divided into two sections separated by a short intermission; a copy of the recital program follows this summary. Both sections of the program contained a variety of performance mediums. My Spirit Be Joyful, which opened the program, was performed by two trumpets and organ. The Handel Aria, a Baroque variation, and the Bozza Concertino, a contemporary concerto, were both performed by Mr. Johnson with piano accompaniment. The second section opened with the startling Fanfare for a New Theatre by Igor Stravinsky; this was performed by two unaccompanied trumpets. Performed next, contrary to the original program order, was Jan Neruda's Concerto in Eb transcribed for solo Eb trumpet and piano. Concluding the recital program were excerpts from Hungarian Peasant Songs by Bela Bartok recently transcribed for brass quintet by Mr. Johnson. The quintet performed six of the original fifteen lively peasant dances, ending the program in the flurry of a wild Hungarian dance. A recording of the recital was placed on file in the Music Office for those interested.
