Professional Trumpeteer visits college

I Anthony Plog, principal
taimpet player with the Los
■geles Chamber Orchestra
and the Pasadena Orchestra
performed on campus last
Wednesday presenting several
«nations for trumpet from
sonatas to improvisational
Msodes.
I Plog, along with pianist
Maron Davis, began the pro-
gram with the first of eight
sonatas which was composed
during the renaissance by G.B.
Viviani.
He went into Sonata No.
2 followed by Improvisational
Episodes. Plog said of the
episodes, “We don’t know
what it is until we play it. We’ll
improvise and play off the
opening notes.”
“A Sonata for Trumpet
and Piano” by Ramiro Cortez
was Plog’s next selection. Cor­
tez had a commission with the
Utah Symphony when Plog
played there. Cortez didn’t
begin the piece for six months,
but eventually turned out a
romantic tune which, with
some changes, ended up a
sonata that “fit into the tradi-
tional repertoire for trumpet,”
Plog said.

In the second part of the
program, Plog and Davis
played Profiles by Fisher Tull
which were exerpts from Pro­
files varying fast, slowly, broad­
ly and very fast movements.
As a final showing the duo
played “Sonata No. 5” by
Domenico Gabrielli, “a piece
(famous for several choirs com­
bined,” according to Plog.
Plog finds a lot of satisfac­
tion in his music. “I’m satisfied
just doing the best that I can
do,” he said. “I’m constantly
dealing with myself trying to
live up to my potential.”
In the beginning Plog was
prodded by his father to prac­
tice, but said that now it’s “pret­
ty women” that inspire him. “I
really enjoy what I’m doing,”
he said.
