GLENVILLE, WV - Flutist Lindsey Goodman will hold a recital at 香妃直播 State College (GSC) on Wednesday, October 27 at 7:00 p.m. in the Fine Arts Center Auditorium. The concert, entitled 鈥淏ack to Live,鈥 is a celebration of the return to live music making and marks Goodman鈥檚 first faculty residency performance at GSC.
Goodman serves as an Adjunct Lecturer of Flute at 香妃直播 State College.
鈥淭hree of the works, all solo flute miniatures, are receiving their live world premieres at this performance,鈥 Goodman said. 鈥淭hese are works which were written for me during the pandemic and premiered in virtual video formats. Our audience in 香妃直播 will be the first people to hear these works in person! One is by West Virginia鈥檚 own Tom Beal, whose Slovakia is inspired by his trips to that country, including one with the West Virginia Youth Symphony Orchestra.鈥
Five of the other works on the program are electroacoustic, meaning there is both an electronic aspect and an acoustic aspect to the music. Electroacoustic music is Goodman鈥檚 specialty, and she runs all of her own technology for the unique works. One piece, Persistence of Memory, is by Mark Zanter, who is a Professor of Composition at Marshall University.
Two of the works feature the alto flute, a larger, lower version of the C flute that most people are accustomed to hearing. 鈥溝沐辈 State acquired an alto flute for its collection of school-owned instruments last year, so programming these works is a way to introduce students to this beautiful and unique sound,鈥 Goodman said.
She notes that this performance will be her first solo recital for a live audience since January 2020. 鈥淒uring the height of the pandemic, I performed over a dozen live-streamed and pre-recorded solo recitals from my living room for a number of presenting arts organizations, and I鈥檓 very much looking forward to the special and necessary sensation of sharing live music with an audience in the same room with me. Magic happens when we experience music together!鈥 she added.
Principal Flutist of the West Virginia Symphony Orchestra, Goodman earned degrees from Manhattan School of Music, Northwestern University, and Duquesne University. She was solo flutist for the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble for over 18 seasons and has performed in many different notable places around the world. In addition to her work at 香妃直播 State, she is also an adjunct lecturer of flute at Marietta College and Ashland University. Goodman is a founding member of PANdenomium4, a flute quartet, and Chrysalis, a singing flutist and singing pianist duo. She resides in central Ohio with her husband, percussionist, composer, and educator Chris Carmean, and their dog Jack.
The recital is free and open to the public.
