Sandusky, OH—
Nearly 100 folks gathered around Parkvue Place’s 1890s styled gazebo in late September for the third of three spirited musical entertainment on Parkvue’s campus. The crowd sat back and enjoyed the Toledo Academy Brass Quintet under autumn sunny skies with a touch of a breeze. Previously Parkvue has hosted the Phoenix Project Wind Quintet and the Fireland’s String Quartet.
The Toledo Academy Brass Quintet includes: Michael Smith (trumpets); Bruce Heuring (trombone); Peter Vavrinek (french horn); Jason Jordan (tuba); and Mitchell Wechsler (trumpets). The Academy Brass Quintet, comprised of professional musicians from the Greater Toledo Area, was formed in June of 1994 and continues to have a busy concert schedule, including the Maumee Bay State park, the Toledo Museum of Art, the Toledo Metroparks, and numerous concert halls in Northwest Ohio. Their shared repertoire included a collection of classical, semi-classical and popular compositions.
The fall concert is one of many free events Parkvue sponsors to stay connected to the community. Parkvue extends a thank you to the local business who support such events through donations.
