Dennis Ferry master class at the Duke Ellington School for the Arts

Dennis Ferry gave an invited master class to the students of trumpet professor Kieron Irvine at the Duke Ellington School of the Arts in Washington, DC. on May 15, 2012.

Ferry played excerpts from I Remember Clifford, Ravel’s Piano Concerto in G, Gershwin’s American In Paris, the Ponchielli Trumpet Concerto, Mussorgsky-Ravel’s Pictures at an Exhibition, Spain, and the Berio Sequenza. In addition, he played Monteverdi's Orfeo Fanfare on the natural trumpet.

 

Ferry spoke about the importance of being a versatile and complete musician as well as being a good colleague. He also talked about using music notation software and recording software. He briefly touched on living and working in Europe, drawing on his vast experience as principal trumpet of several European orchestras including 31 years as Principal Trumpet of the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande in Geneva, Switzerland. Ferry is currently performing as first trumpet in the pit of Arena Stage in Washington, DC for The Music Man.
