36th Annual World Premiere Concert with guest conductor/composer Alex Nguyen

Saturday, 04 May, 2019

Trumpeter, composer, arranger, music director and curator Alex Nguyen has performed throughout Europe, Asia and the United States. His contributions as a composer and arranger span from choral music to big band, and he was composer/performer for residencies at Betty Carter’s Jazz Ahead at the Kennedy Center and Ravinia's Steans Music Institute. Nguyen has composed and arranged numerous works of sacred music, and blended traditional hymns, spirituals, jazz and gospel in worship services. The premieres of the new works for Scranton will be performed by the university’s student ensembles, made up of University of Scranton student musicians from majors spanning the curriculum, with Mr. Nguyen conducting the premieres of his compositions.
