ROBERT MACHT: BRASS QUINTET
Born in Baltimore in 1958, Robert Macht holds a degree in music composition from Bennington College.
After studying traditional Javanese gamelan in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, Macht began infusing his compositions with Southeast Asian percussion. Robert Macht is a Javanese gamelan expert whose album Suite for Javanese Gamelan and Synthesizer demonstrates his creative versatility with the form. Macht has composed works for numerous orchestras, chamber ensembles, and gamelan ensembles.
His diverse works have been performed by the U.S. Marine Band, the Annapolis Brass Quintet, the Peabody Trio, and the Nusantara Symphony Orchestra in Jakarta. He has composed for several dance companies, including the Martha Graham Dance Company. Macht’s orchestral work, Delaware Rhapsody, was commissioned and awarded performance by the American Composers Forum and the Delaware Symphony.

CAROL NETHEN: THREE REFLECTIONS
Carol Nethen was born in Annapolis in 1952, and she has been composing music for film and television since she was a graduate student at the University of Miami. For several years she was a producer and composer for Maryland Public Television. She has written scores and theme music for numerous feature films and documentary television programs.
Three Reflections was commissioned by the Brass Chamber Music Society of Annapolis especially for this performance. The composer believes the work is best described by its harmonic quality, which is a combination of the modal harmonies and rhythmic content widely associated with twentieth century American music, perhaps best exemplified in the music of Copland and in the feel of jazz.
