Unusually Different at Villa Maria College

About

Unusually Different Ensemble is a six-member Woodwind/Brasswinds group, performing on BBb Contra-Bass Clarinet, Eb Contra-Bass Clarinet, Bass Saxophone, Bassoon, Bass Flute and Tuba. Our musical performances include all genres of music, with a unique sound. The band has been commissioned by the Arts Services Initiative of WNY to perform “Ode to the Buffalo River”. A new CD will be out in February 2014.

The band has been rehearsing and performing together for more than a year now, and has developed approaches to a variety of repertoire (from Machaut to Sun Ra) that are both unusual and different.
