LCSC’s Perconti is part of sax trio that records song for cd
The Idaho Saxophone Trio, which includes Lewis-Clark State College Humanities Professor Bill Perconti, has released its first CD recording, a classical selection entitled “60” by American composer Henry Cowell.
The recording is included on volume 13 of the series “America’s Millennium Tribute to Adolphe Sax” by Arizona University Recordings. The 14 volume CD set features a compilation of new recordings by saxophonists from around the world, and the Idaho Saxophone Trio’s recording of Cowell’s “60” is a world premier.
The Idaho Saxophone Trio comprises Perconti, Joy Atkin of Lewiston, and Vanessa Sielert of the University of Idaho. On this recording Perconti plays soprano saxophone, Atkin is on alto saxophone, and Sielert plays baritone saxophone.
Formed by Perconti to explore saxophone trio repertoire, the trio has performed on faculty recitals and at a regional conference of the North American Saxophone Alliance.
