The Brasswood Trio

The Trio’s music is guaranteed to warm your heart and spirit on a cold Sunday afternoon!.

Due to a significant weather event, the February 22nd Classical Music Series concert with The Brasswood Trio has been rescheduled for Sunday, April 26th at 4:00 PM.  All previously purchased tickets will be transferred to the new date and will be honored upon arrival.

Come join us at The Mainstay for a Delightful Springtime Musical Salon with The Brasswood Trio on Sunday, April 26th at 4 PM. Dana Newcomb (Oboe), Anne Nye (French Horn), and Kendra Bigley (Piano) are a trio of talented musicians who are dedicated to the art of Chamber Music. Their love of Chamber Music and of the beauty of their three instruments playing together is very evident in the program they will present at The Mainstay. Sure to delight the audience is Romantic-Era Composer Carl Reinecke’s “Trio for Oboe, Horn, and Piano in A Minor, Opus 188”, written in 1886. This piece is a master class in how three instruments can take the stage arm-in-arm with constant dialogue – from witty to dramatic – among and between them.

Dana Newcomb is Principal Oboe of the Lancaster Symphony Orchestra, Principal Oboe of the Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra, Principal Oboe of the New Jersey Chamber Orchestra, and Second Oboe and English Horn with the Brandywine Valley Symphony. She performed Oboe and English Horn with the Endless Mountain Music Festival Orchestra for ten years. Dana performs frequently with the Baltimore Chamber Orchestra, and in the oboe sections of orchestras such as the Delaware Symphony and Richmond Symphony. She earned her Bachelor of Music in Performance and Master’s Degrees from the Peabody Institute of Music in Baltimore.

Anne Nye is an orchestral and chamber musician based in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. She currently performs with the Allegro Orchestra of Lancaster, Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra, and Pennsylvania Philharmonic; and she regularly performs with the York, Lancaster, Reading, and Brandywine Symphony Orchestras and with the Lancaster Brass Quintet. Anne’s passion for chamber music inspired her to co-found Manor Winds (a Wind Quintet Group) and Trilogy Brass. She earned a Bachelor of Music in Performance from the Wheaton Conservatory of Music in Illinois.

Pianist Kendra Bigley is a versatile musician who has performed frequently at the Trust Performing Arts Center in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. She has collaborated with artists at Penn Square Opera, the Pennsylvania Philharmonic, the Lancaster Art Song Society, and Temple Opera. A respected music educator with degrees from the Eastman School of Music and Temple University, Ms. Bigley is on the faculty at Lancaster Bible College and at Franklin and Marshall College.
