University of New Mexico Wind Symphony Tales Of Imagination

Music and imagination have always been linked together as a symbiotic pair.
Whether by intention or by chance, music inspires, touching that part of
the human mind that imagines things. Here, world-class hornist JD Shaw
(former Boston Brass hornist) joins with the experienced conducting of Eric
Rombach-Kendall and the talented musicians of the University of New Mexico
Wind Symphony to perform a collection of works in which artistry, colors,
passion, and sorrow illustrate Tales of Imagination. JD Shaw is currently
Professor of French Horn at the University of New Mexico and was formerly
the French hornist with internationally acclaimed Boston Brass, where he was
creative director, music arranger, and co-owner of the ensemble. JD is an active
solo artist and travels extensively throughout the United States as well as many
countries in North America, Europe, and Asia. In 2010, he was the featured
recitalist at the 42nd International Horn Symposium in Brisbane, Australia.
He has been a featured performer on NPR s Performance Today and the CBS
Morning Show.
